ClinGen Rett and Angelman-like Disorders Variant Curation Expert Panel RCV000991003 SCV001711999 likely pathogenic Rett syndrome 2021-03-26 reviewed by expert panel curation Functional studies have shown that this variant shows partial reduction in heterochromatin binding (PMID 18989701) (PS3_supporting). The variant has been reported to segregate in three informative meioses (PMID 18989701, internal database) (PP1_Moderate). The p.Pro152Ala variant occurs in the well-characterized Methyl-DNA binding (MDB) functional domain of MECP2 (PM1). A pathogenic missense variant (p.Pro152Arg) has been previously identified within this codon which indicates that this residue is critical to the function of the protein (10767337) (PM5). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). In summary, the p.Pro152Ala variant in MECP2 is classified as likely pathogenic for Rett syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (PS3_supporting, PP1_moderate, PM1, PM5, PP3).

Invitae RCV001246099 SCV001419437 pathogenic Severe neonatal-onset encephalopathy with microcephaly 2023-11-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 152 of the MECP2 protein (p.Pro152Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs179363900, gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with mild forms of Rett syndrome (PMID: 18989701, 27929079, 29655203). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 11844). 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: 18989701, 26842955, 27929079). This variant disrupts the p.Pro152 amino acid residue in MECP2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10767337, 11241840, 27929079). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Centre for Population Genomics, CPG RCV000991003 SCV004098714 likely pathogenic Rett syndrome 2023-08-14 criteria provided, single submitter curation 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 2.0, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. At least the following criteria are met: Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies strongly supportive of a damaging effect on the protein function (PS3, PMID: 18989701). Occurs in the well-characterized Methyl-DNA binding (MDB) functional domain of MECP2 (PM1). Another missense variant (c.491C>G, p.Pro164Arg, ClinVar Variation ID: 143579) in the same codon has been classified as pathogenic for Rett syndrome by the ClinGen Rett and Angelman-like Disorders Expert Panel (PM5). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact (REVEL score ≥ 0.75) (PP3).
