Description

In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1424572). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MECP2-related conditions (PMID: 28394482, 32472557). This variant is present in population databases (rs782468872, gnomAD 0.005%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 147 of the MECP2 protein (p.Asp147Glu).

Description

This variant has been collected from RettBASE and curated to current modified ACMG/AMP criteria. Based on the classification scheme defined by the ClinGen Rett/Angelman-like Expert Panel for Rett/AS-like Disorders Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines VCEP 3.0, this variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. At least the following criteria are met: Occurs in the well-characterized Methyl-DNA binding (MDB) functional domain of MECP2 (PM1). Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in at least 2 informative meiosis (PP1). PMID: 28394482
