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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.753
• PP5: Variant X-154030914-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-154030914-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 143745.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Centre for Population Genomics, CPG

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: curation

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 2.0, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic. At least the following criteria are met: Occurs in the well-characterized Transcriptional repression domain (TRD) of MECP2 (PM1). Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies strongly supportive of a damaging effect on the protein function (PS3_supporting, PMID: 23770565). Has been observed in at least 3 individuals with phenotypes consistent with MECP2-related disease (PS4_Moderate, Rettbase internal database, PMID: 11055898, PMID: 11738885, PMID: 15737703). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact (REVEL score ≥ 0.75) (PP3). This variant is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 305 of the MECP2 protein (p.Lys305Arg). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MECP2 function (PMID: 23770565). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MECP2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 143745). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Rett syndrome (PMID: 11402105, 15737703). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
