Genes affected

MFN2 (HGNC:16877): (mitofusin 2) This gene encodes a mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitochondrial fusion and contributes to the maintenance and operation of the mitochondrial network. This protein is involved in the regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and it may play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A2, and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy VI, which are both disorders of the peripheral nervous system. Defects in this gene have also been associated with early-onset stroke. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The missense c.334G>Ap.Val112Met variant has been reported in homozygous state in an individuals affected with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Kanwal S, et. al., 2021. The p.Val112Met variant has been reported with allele frequency of 0.001% in gnomAD Exomes and is novel not in any individuals in 1000 Genomes database. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Uncertain Significance/Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic. The amino acid change p.Val112Met in MFN2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Val at position 112 is changed to a Met changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Additional functional studies are required to prove pathogenicity of the variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely pathogenic. -

The c.334G>A (p.V112M) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 3) of the MFN2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 334, causing the valine (V) at amino acid position 112 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on the available evidence, the MFN2 c.334G>A (p.V112M) alteration is pathogenic for autosomal recessive MFN2-related neuropathy; however, its clinical significance for autosomal dominant MFN2-related neuropathy is uncertain. Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.002% (4/251486) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.01% (3/30616) of South Asian alleles. This alteration was detected in the homozygous state in multiple individuals with MFN2-related neuropathy cosegregates with disease in one family (Taghizadeh, 2020; Kanwal, 2021; Sharma, 2022; Asif, 2023). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 112 of the MFN2 protein (p.Val112Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs757937208, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 32657593, 33415332, 34193129). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 587402). 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 MFN2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
