ClinGen Rett and Angelman-like Disorders Variant Curation Expert Panel RCV000030666 SCV002540680 pathogenic Rett syndrome 2022-05-10 reviewed by expert panel curation The p.Arg133Cys (NM_004992) variant in MECP2 has been reported as an assumed de novo occurrence in at least 4 individuals with Rett Syndrome (PMID: 10814718, PMID: 10991688, PMID: 12707946) (PS2_very-strong). The p.Arg133Cys variant has been observed in at least 4 other individuals with Rett Syndrome (PMID: 10814718, PMID: 10991688, PMID: 12707946, PMID: 17387578, PMID: 16473305) (PS4). The p.Arg133Cys variant occurs in the well-characterized (Methyl-DNA binding [MDB]: aa 90-162) functional domain of the MECP2 (PM1). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). The p.Arg133Cys variant in MECP2 is absent from gnomAD (PM2_Supporting). In summary the p.Arg133Cys variant in MECP2 is classified as Pathogenic for Rett Syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PS2_very-strong, PS4, PM1, PP3, PM2_supporting).

Invitae RCV000460141 SCV000544618 pathogenic Severe neonatal-onset encephalopathy with microcephaly 2024-01-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 133 of the MECP2 protein (p.Arg133Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Rett syndrome (PMID: 11738879, 16473305, 22368975, 23421866, 26418480). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11809). 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 MECP2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MECP2 function (PMID: 10852707, 11058114, 11738866, 12843318, 21831886, 26647311). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000030666 SCV000698538 pathogenic Rett syndrome 2016-09-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The MECP2 c.397C>T (p.Arg133Cys) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. Arg133 is located in the Methyl-CpG DNA binding domain. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This prediction was confirmed by one functional study showing MECP2 R133C resulted in the complete disruption of its ability to bind to methylated DNA (Yusufzai_2000). This variant has been reported as a de novo variant in numerous RTT patients, some of whom are reported to have a mild phenotype, and is one of the most common pathogenic variant in MECP2. This variant is absent in 87882 control chromosomes. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Athena Diagnostics Inc RCV000081202 SCV000842734 pathogenic not provided 2022-05-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with Rett syndrome and neonatal encephalopathy. It also appears to occur de novo in multiple individuals. Although this variant has been reported in individuals with classical Rett syndrome, it appears to be associated with milder clinical phenotype when compared to other disease associated variants in this gene (PMID: 18332345, 26175308,15057977). Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. This variant caused impaired binding to DNA (PMID: 17101771, 34324427, 26647311). The variant is located in a region that is considered important for protein function and/or structure.
Ambry Genetics RCV000624907 SCV000846360 pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2017-09-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R133C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.397C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the MECP2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 397. The arginine at codon 133 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This mutation (also referred to as c.471C>T) was originally identified as a de novo alteration in a sporadic case with Rett syndrome (Amir RE et al. Nat. Genet., 1999 Oct;23:185-8). Subsequently, this mutation has been described in numerous individuals with Rett syndrome (Philippe C et al. Eur J Med Genet, 2006 Jan-Feb;49:9-18; Bao X et al. Dev Med Child Neurol, 2013 Jun;55:553-8). p.R133C is one of the most common missense mutations in MECP2 and currently represents 4.7% of all MECP2 variants reported in the IRSA MECP2 Variation Database (RettBASE) (Christodoulou J et al. Hum. Mutat., 2003 May;21:466-72). This mutation is located in the highly conserved methyl-CpG binding domain of the MECP2 protein and impairs binding to methylated DNA in vitro (Yusufzai TM and Wolffe AP. Nucleic Acids Res., 2000 Nov;28:4172-9; Free A et al. J. Biol. Chem., 2001 Feb;276:3353-60). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as a pathogenic mutation.

Neuberg Supratech Reference Laboratories Pvt Ltd, Neuberg Centre for Genomic Medicine RCV000030666 SCV004101513 pathogenic Rett syndrome criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The missense variant p.R133C in MECP2 (NM_004992.4) has been previously reported in individuals affected with Rett Syndrome (Sheikh et al, 2016). Experimental studies reveal damaging effect on protein structure and function (Sheikh et al, 2016; Brown et al, 2016). The variant has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic.The p.R133C variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. There is a large physicochemical difference between arginine and cysteine, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. The p.R133C missense variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The arginine residue at codon 133 of MECP2 is conserved in all mammalian species. The nucleotide c.397 in MECP2 is predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
