Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PP3PP4PM6_StrongPM2_SupportingPM1PM5PS4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.905C>T p.(Pro302Leu) variant in MECP2 (NM_004992.3) is absent from gnomAD (PM2_supporting). The p.(Pro302Leu) variant has been observed in at least 5 individuals with Rett syndrome or severe neonatal encephalopathy (PMID:10767337, 30377382, 23696494, 11313756, 16473305, 32472557) (PS4, PP4), where it has been reported as a de novo occurrence (biological parentage unconfirmed) in at least 4 of these individuals (PMID:10767337, 30377382, 23696494, 11313756) (PM6_very strong). The p.(Pro302Leu) variant occurs in the well-characterized transcriptional repression domain (TRD: aa 302-306) of the MECP2 gene (PM1). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). Multiple pathogenic missense variants have been previously identified within this codon which indicates that this residue is critical to the function of the protein (PMID:10814718, 10814719, 10944854, 17387578, 15737703) (PM5). In summary, the c.905C>T p.(Pro302Leu) variant in MECP2 is classified as Pathogenic for Rett syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PM6_very strong, PS4, PM1, PM5, PP3, PP4, PM2_supporting).

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]
