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]

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 22, 2023This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 63 of the MFN2 protein (p.Asn63His). This variant is present in population databases (rs761216583, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MFN2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408320). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MFN2 protein function. 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. -
