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

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -19 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.27).
• BP6: Variant 1-11989318-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-11989318-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 138219.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-11989318-C-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_benign]. Variant chr1-11989318-C-A is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.54 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00129 (197/152180) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.0352 (182/5168). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.031. There are 5 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 113 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAd at 5 SD gene

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Benign:2

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	May 27, 2014	This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Benign:2

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 13, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
