ClinGen Rett and Angelman-like Disorders Variant Curation Expert Panel RCV000030168 SCV002540687 benign Rett syndrome 2022-02-19 reviewed by expert panel curation The allele frequency of the p.Thr311Met variant in MECP2 (NM_004992.3) is 0.022% and 0.01% in "Other" and South Asian sub population in gnomAD, which is high enough to meet the BS1 criteria based on thresholds defined by the ClinGen Rett/Angelman-like Expert Panel for Rett/AS-like conditions (BS1). The p.Thr311Met variant is observed in at least 2 unaffected individuals (GeneDx internal database) (BS2) and found in 2 patients with an alternate molecular basis of disease (Baylor Genetics internal database, Invitae internal database) (BP5). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact; however, this information does not predict clinical significance on its own (PP3). As this variant meets 2 strong and 1 supporting benign criteria it can be classified as benign even though in silico predictions meet PP3. In summary, the p.Thr311Met variant in MECP2 is classified as benign for Rett syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (BS1, BS2, BP5).
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000426076 SCV000052826 likely benign not specified 2018-05-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MECP2 c.932C>T (p.Thr311Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.9e-05 in 178987 control chromosomes including 2 hemizygotes (gnomAD). The observed variant frequency is approximately 4.7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MECP2 causing Rett Syndrome phenotype (8.3e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. The variant, c.932C>T, has been reported in the literature in one individual affected with Rett Syndrome (Kim_2006). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

Ambry Genetics RCV002316203 SCV000850392 likely benign Inborn genetic diseases 2018-07-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
Centre for Population Genomics, CPG RCV000030168 SCV004232260 likely benign Rett syndrome 2024-01-09 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 3.0, this variant is classified as likely benign. At least the following criteria are met: The allele frequency of this variant in at least one population in gnomAD is between 0.008% and 0.03% (BS1). Variant is found in an individual with an alternate molecular basis of disease (BP5). (ClinVar Variation ID:36496) The variant is observed in at least 2 individuals with no features of Rett Syndrome (BS2). Computational prediction analysis tools suggests a deleterious impact (REVEL score>= 0.75) (PP3).
