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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), MFN2. . Gene score misZ 1.6575 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 3.2174 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A2, axonal hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type 6, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, autosomal recessive, type 2a2b;, multiple symmetric lipomatosis, severe early-onset axonal neuropathy due to MFN2 deficiency.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.09910816).

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 19, 2019Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 03, 2022The c.163A>T (p.T55S) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 1) of the MFN2 gene. This alteration results from a A to T substitution at nucleotide position 163, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 55 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 08, 2022In 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. 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 not expected to disrupt MFN2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 451931). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MFN2-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs776423551, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 55 of the MFN2 protein (p.Thr55Ser). -
