Genes affected
ISCA2 (HGNC:19857): (iron-sulfur cluster assembly 2) The protein encoded by this gene is an A-type iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) protein found in mitochondria. The encoded protein appears to be involved in the maturation of mitochondrial iron-sulfur proteins. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]
NPC2 (HGNC:14537): (NPC intracellular cholesterol transporter 2) This gene encodes a protein containing a lipid recognition domain. The encoded protein may function in regulating the transport of cholesterol through the late endosomal/lysosomal system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Niemann-Pick disease, type C2 and frontal lobe atrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 77 of the ISCA2 protein (p.Gly77Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome (PMID: 25558065, 29122497, 29297947). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183353). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects ISCA2 function (PMID: 29297947). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.229G>A (p.Gly77Ser) variant has been reported in two studies in a total of five multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome patients from three families, all of whom were found to be homozygous for the variant (Alazami et al. 2015; Al-Hassnan et al. 2015). The p.Gly77Ser variant was shown to segregate with disease across two generations in all three families and to be the result of a founder effect. The variant was absent from 1,060 ethnically matched controls and is not found in the 1000 Genomes Project, the Exome Sequencing Project, or the Exome Aggregation Consortium. The Gly77 residue is highly conserved over 58 different species. Functional studies demonstrated that the p.Gly77Ser variant had only 20% of normal complex I activity and resulted in a significant depletion of mitochondrial DNA copy number in patient fibroblasts. Modelling studies showed that the p.Gly77Ser variant occurs in a loop that is directly involved in iron-sulphur cluster binding. Substitution of the glycine by serine is predicted to affect the stability of the flexibility of the loop and therefore the efficiency of binding to the iron-sulphur cluster (Alazami et al. 2015; Al-Hassnan et al. 2015). Based on the evidence, the p.Gly77Ser variant is classified as likely pathogenic for multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome. -
