Genes affected

SYNE2 (HGNC:17084): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear outer membrane protein that binds cytoplasmic F-actin. This binding tethers the nucleus to the cytoskeleton and aids in the maintenance of the structural integrity of the nucleus. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

ESR2 (HGNC:3468): (estrogen receptor 2) This gene encodes a member of the family of estrogen receptors and superfamily of nuclear receptor transcription factors. The gene product contains an N-terminal DNA binding domain and C-terminal ligand binding domain and is localized to the nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria. Upon binding to 17beta-estradiol or related ligands, the encoded protein forms homo- or hetero-dimers that interact with specific DNA sequences to activate transcription. Some isoforms dominantly inhibit the activity of other estrogen receptor family members. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been fully characterized.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.005645628 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.7, offset of 10, new splice context is: ctgGTtggt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000171 (25/1459506) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0000299 (1/33430). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000146. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 8 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 30. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Variant summary: SYNE2 c.12609+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing, however current evidence is not sufficient to establish loss of function as a mechanism for disease. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251444 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.12609+1G>A in individuals affected with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy 5, autosomal dominant and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 807123). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 807123). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SYNE2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs745516407, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 65 of the SYNE2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), however the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in SYNE2 cause disease. -
