PS4, PM2, PM5, PP5 - The variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic by other laboratories (Variation ID 225761). This variant has been previously reported as causative for X-linked HNRNPH2-related neurodevelopmental disorder (PMID:34907471). -
The observed missense variant c.617G>A(p.Arg206Gln) in HNRNPH2 gene has been reported previously in individuals with developmental delay, intellectual disability, and hypotonia (Bain JM, et al., 2016, Jepsen WM, et al., 2019). A different amino acid change as a known pathogenic variant has been reported c.616C>T(p.Arg206Trp).The (p.Arg206Gln) variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic/Pathogenic (multiple submissions). The amino acid Arginine at position 206 is changed to a Glutamine changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Computational evidence (Polyphen-Benign, SIFT-Tolerated and Mutation Taster-disease causing) predicts conflicting evidence on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid p.Arg206Gln in HNRNPH2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Submission from Simons Searchlight facilitated by GenomeConnect. Variant interpreted by the Simons Searchlight team most recently on 2018-03-16 and interpreted as Likely Pathogenic. The reporting laboratory might also submit to ClinVar. This variant was identified in multiple probands enrolled in Simons Searchlight. -

PS2, PS4 – moderate, PM1, PM2, PP3 The HNRNPH2 c.617G>A variant is a single nucleotide change from a guanine to an adenine at position 617 which is predicted to alter the amino acid arginine at position 206 in the protein to glutamine. The variant is de novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history (PS2). The variant is in dbSNP (rs886039764) but is absent from population databases (PM2). This variant has been previously reported as de novo in a female patient with developmental delay, intellectual disability, and hypotonia, (PMID: 27545675) and more recently in similarly affected males (PMID: 30887513) (PS4 – moderate). The variant is located in exon 2 and this position is a mutational hotspot with other de novo variants reported at this position (e.g. Arg206Trp PMID: 27545675, PMID: 31236915; Arg206Leu PMID: 31943778) (PM1). The variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic by another diagnostic laboratory (Variation ID 225761). Computational predictions support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (PP3). -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0101 - Gain of function is a suggested mechanism of disease in this gene (PMID:27545675) and is associated with intellectual developmental disorder, X-linked syndromic, Bain type (MIM#300986). (I) 0110 - This gene is associated with X-linked dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to glutamine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0503 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be tolerated by multiple in silico tools or not conserved in placental mammals with a minor amino acid change. (SB) 0603 - Missense variant in a region that is highly intolerant to missense variation (high constraint region in DECIPHER). (SP) 0701 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. De novo missense variants at this amino acid position have been reported many times in individuals affected with disease (ClinVar, PMID: 33728377). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported many times in ClinVar as pathogenic and is a repeatedly seen de novo variant in individuals (both male and female) presenting with intellectual disability, regression and growth issues (PMID: 27545675, 33728377, 32335897). (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1002 - This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. In vitro studies demonstrate that this variant creates a defect in protein localisation (PMID:34907471). Accumulation of similar HNRNP proteins in the cytoplasm can lead to neurodegenerative conditions (PMID:27545675). (SP) 1203 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status confirmed by trio analysis). (SP) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

The HNRNPH2 c.617G>A; p.Arg206Gln variant (rs886039764, ClinVar Variation ID: 225761) has been reported as a de novo variant in several males with neurodevelopmental disorders (Bain 2021, Jepsen 2019, Kreienkamp 2022, Madhok 2022, Peron 2020). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.225). Additionally, other variants at this codon (c.617G>T, p.Arg206Leu; c.616C>T, p.Arg206Trp) have been reported in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders and are considered pathogenic (Bain 2021, Jepsen 2019). Based on available information, the p.Arg206Gln variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Bain JM et al.

HNRNPH2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The HNRNPH2 c.617G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg206Gln. This variant has been previously reported as causative for X-linked HNRNPH2-related neurodevelopmental disorder (Bain et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27545675; Harmsen et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30887513; Patient 071 in Demos et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31164858; Martin et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33504798, Supplementary Data 2; Bain et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33728377). An alternate nucleotide change affecting the same amino acid (c.616C>T, p.Arg206Trp) has also been reported in individuals with HNRNPH2-related neurodevelopmental disorder (see for example Jepsen et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31236915; Bain et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33728377). In addition, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by multiple laboratories in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/225761/). We therefore classify this variant as pathogenic. -
