Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Moderate PP5_Moderate

The NM_198904.4(GABRG2):c.967C>G(p.Arg323Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R323W) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

GABRG2 (HGNC:4087): (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit gamma2) This gene encodes a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammlian brain, where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. GABA-A receptors are pentameric, consisting of proteins from several subunit classes: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and rho. Mutations in this gene have been associated with epilepsy and febrile seizures. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_198904.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr5-162149153-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 60708.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, GABRG2
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.935
• PP5: Variant 5-162149152-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-162149152-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 946639.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 323 of the GABRG2 protein (p.Arg323Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with GABRG2-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 946639). 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 GABRG2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg323 amino acid residue in GABRG2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 23708187, 27334371, 27864268, 29100083). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
