Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PP3PP5_Moderate

The NM_005670.4(EPM2A):​c.272G>C​(p.Arg91Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000144 in 1,385,796 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV005907572: "In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg91Pro variant may slightly impact protein function." PMID:34755096". Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R91W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
EPM2A (HGNC:3413): (EPM2A glucan phosphatase, laforin) This gene encodes a dual-specificity phosphatase and may be involved in the regulation of glycogen metabolism. The protein acts on complex carbohydrates to prevent glycogen hyperphosphorylation, thus avoiding the formation of insoluble aggregates. Loss-of-function mutations in this gene have been associated with Lafora disease, a rare, adult-onset recessive neurodegenerative disease, which results in myoclonus epilepsy and usually results in death several years after the onset of symptoms. The disease is characterized by the accumulation of insoluble particles called Lafora bodies, which are derived from glycogen. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2018]
