Genes affected
MAPT (HGNC:6893): (microtubule associated protein tau) This gene encodes the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) whose transcript undergoes complex, regulated alternative splicing, giving rise to several mRNA species. MAPT transcripts are differentially expressed in the nervous system, depending on stage of neuronal maturation and neuron type. MAPT gene mutations have been associated with several neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Pick's disease, frontotemporal dementia, cortico-basal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy.

Frontotemporal dementia Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedliterature onlyOMIMApr 01, 2002- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 21, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 5 of the MAPT protein (p.Arg5His). This variant is present in population databases (rs63750959, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with MAPT-related conditions (PMID: 11921059, 22312439, 26200045, 26601740, 28462717, 28923025, 33580635). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14261). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MAPT function (PMID: 11921059). This variant disrupts the p.Arg5 amino acid residue in MAPT. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MAPT-related conditions (PMID: 12325083, 18803694, 23043292), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
MAPT-Related Spectrum Disorders Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
