Genes affected
MECR (HGNC:19691): (mitochondrial trans-2-enoyl-CoA reductase) The protein encoded by this gene is an oxidoreductase that catalyzes the last step in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis. Defects in this gene are a cause of childhood-onset dystonia and optic atrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 22, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 232 of the MECR protein (p.Gly232Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs762913101, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with childhood-onset dystonia with optic atrophy and basal ganglia abnormalities (PMID: 27817865). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374878). 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 MECR protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 13, 2022Published functional studies suggest a damaging effect as yeast transfected with G232E showed absence of protein lipoylation and protein expression (Heimer et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27817865, 32445240) -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaMar 03, 2023The MECR c.695G>A (p.Gly232Glu) missense variant results in the substitution of glycine at amino acid position 232 with glutamine. This variant has been reported in a compound heterozygous state with the c.830+2dup variant in four individuals with features of primary mitochondrial disease from three families, at least two of whom had Jewish ancestry (PMID: 27817865; PMID: 32445240; PMID: 34052969). Fibroblasts from compound heterozygous individuals showed reduced MECR protein expression and reduced protein lipoylation. Reduced electron transport capacity was also observed in some cases (PMID: 27817865). The c.695G>A variant has also been reported in trans with a stop-gained variant in an additional affected individual (PMID: 27817865). The highest frequency of this allele in the Genome Aggregation Database is 0.001587 in the Ashkenazi Jewish population (version 2.1.1). This frequency is consistent with the increased prevalence of MECR-related primary mitochondrial disease among individuals with Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (PMID: 31070877). Yeast complementation studies of this variant, which is located within the cofactor binding domain, demonstrated an impaired ability to rescue the lactate-dependent growth phenotype compared to wildtype. The c.695G>A variant also showed reduced protein expression/stability and impaired lipoylation when expressed in yeast (PMID: 27817865). This variant was identified in a compound heterozygous state with the c.830+2dup variant and segregated with disease. Based on the available evidence, the c.695G>A (p.Gly232Glu) variant is classified as likely pathogenic for primary mitochondrial disease. -
