Description

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MCEE-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant results in the deletion of part of exon 2 (c.375_378+4del) of the MCEE gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MCEE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16697227, 16752391, 30682498).
