Genes affected
IGHMBP2 (HGNC:5542): (immunoglobulin mu DNA binding protein 2) This gene encodes a helicase superfamily member that binds a specific DNA sequence from the immunoglobulin mu chain switch region. Mutations in this gene lead to spinal muscle atrophy with respiratory distress type 1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 18, 2018The IGHMBP2 c.1478C>T (p.Thr493Ile) missense variant has been reported in at least five studies in which it was identified in a compound heterozygous state in seven individuals from five families with spinal muscular atrophy (Guenther et al. 2009; Joseph et al. 2009; Eckart et al. 2012; Hamilton et al. 2015; Pedurupillay et al. 2016). In one sibling pair who carried a small deletion in trans with the p.Thr493Ile variant, one individual exhibited a more classic infantile spinal muscular atrophy phenotype while the other showed a phenotype consistent with Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2S (Pedurupillay et al. 2016). However, the p.Thr493Ile variant was not identified in 11 probands with Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2 who had recessively inherited IGHMBP2 variants (Cottenie et al. 2014). The variant p.Thr493Ile was absent from 300 control individuals (Guenther et al. 2009) and is reported at a frequency of 0.00025 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Expression of the variant in E. coli showed that it did not influence IGHMBP2 ATPase or helicase activity compared to wild type values (Guenther et al. 2009b), consistent with its location distant from helicase motifs. Comparison of steady-state IGHMBP2 protein levels in probands and their heterozygous parents indicated the p.Thr493Ile variant reduced steady-state protein levels by 50% compared to wild type levels (Guenther et al. 2009), and qRT-PCR experiments indicated the variant did not result in nonsense-mediated decay (Pedurupillay et al. 2016). Based on the collective evidence, the p.Thr493Ile variant is classified as pathogenic for spinal muscular atrophy. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 09, 2020The p.T493I pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1478C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the IGHMBP2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1478. The threonine at codon 493 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been detected in trans with pathogenic mutations in IGHMBP2 in multiple affected individuals (Guenther UP et al. J. Mol. Med., 2009 Jan;87:31-41; Pedurupillay CR et al. Neuromuscul. Disord., 2016 09;26:570-5; Hamilton MJ et al. Neuromuscul. Disord., 2015 Feb;25:169-71). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Autosomal recessive distal spinal muscular atrophy 1;C4015349:Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2S Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 493 of the IGHMBP2 protein (p.Thr493Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs780594709, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress, type 1 or Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, type 2S (PMID: 18802676, 19157874, 25454169, 27450922; Invitae). 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: 217450). 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 IGHMBP2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects IGHMBP2 function (PMID: 18802676, 19158098). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
