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]

This variant has been collected from RettBASE and curated to current modified ACMG/AMP criteria. Based on the classification scheme defined by the ClinGen Rett/Angelman-like Expert Panel for Rett/AS-like Disorders Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines VCEP 3.0, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. At least the following criteria are met: This variant has been identified as a de novo occurrence in an individual with Rett syndrome without confirmation of paternity and maternity (PM6). (PMID: 16376510, 12615169) Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact (REVEL score>= 0.75) (PP3). At least one individual with this variant has been reported with a clinical phenotype consistent with Rett syndrome (PP4). PMID 11738885 This variant is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). Has been observed in at least 3 individuals with phenotypes consistent with MECP2-related disease(PS4_Moderate). (PMID: 16376510, 12615169, 33168794) -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 225 of the MECP2 protein (p.Pro225Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Rett syndrome (PMID: 12615169). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11841). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MECP2 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Pro225 amino acid residue in MECP2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10767337, 10854091, 11524741, 12075485). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
