Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -18 ACMG points: 2P and 20B. PM1BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_001110792.2(MECP2):​c.731G>C​(p.Gly244Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000558 in 1,206,746 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 8 homozygotes. There are 214 hemizygotes in GnomAD. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G244D) has been classified as Uncertain significance. The gene MECP2 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

Genes affected
MECP2 (HGNC:6990): (methyl-CpG binding protein 2) DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 comprise a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, is capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA. MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. In contrast to other MBD family members, MECP2 is X-linked and subject to X inactivation. MECP2 is dispensible in stem cells, but is essential for embryonic development. MECP2 gene mutations are the cause of most cases of Rett syndrome, a progressive neurologic developmental disorder and one of the most common causes of cognitive disability in females. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -18 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 7 benign, 14 uncertain in NM_001110792.2
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.00890398).
BP6
Variant X-154031133-C-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chrX-154031133-C-G is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 143661.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000253 (28/110714) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00718 (25/3482). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00499. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 8 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 23. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 28 XL,Unknown,AD gene.
