RCV000519737 | SCV000619620 | pathogenic | not provided | 2017-08-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.102delT variant in the MECP2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The c.102delT variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Aspartic acid 34, changes this amino acid to a Glutamic acid residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 91 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Asp34GlufsX91. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.102delT variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). We interpret c.102delT as a pathogenic variant. |
