Invitae RCV000696870 SCV000825450 likely pathogenic Carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency 2024-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 479 of the CPT2 protein (p.Tyr479Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs749895856, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with carnitine palmitoyltransferase II deficiency (PMID: 12707442, 15642848). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 523331). 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 not expected to disrupt CPT2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CPT2 function (PMID: 34063237). This variant disrupts the p.Tyr479 amino acid residue in CPT2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15642848, 18925671). 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.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001731819 SCV001983761 uncertain significance not specified 2022-05-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: CPT2 c.1436A>T (p.Tyr479Phe) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Choline/carnitine acyltransferase domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250996 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in CPT2 causing Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase II Deficiency (4e-05 vs 0.0016), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1436A>T has been reported in the literature in at least one compound heterozygous individual affected with Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase II Deficiency (Wiser_2003). Experimental studies have shown the initial enzyme activity of the variant was similar to wild-type, but that the activity half-lives of the variant at different temperatures were reduced, albeit more midly than for other variants (Meinhardt_2021). Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Three classified the variant as VUS while one classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic.
