Description

In a German patient with multiple exostoses type II (EXT2; 133701), Heinritz et al. (2009) identified a heterozygous A-to-C transversion (744-2A-C) in a highly conserved nucleotide in intron 4 of the EXT2 gene. RT-PCR analysis identified 2 different splice variants skipping either only exon 5 or both exons 5 and 6. Loss of exon 5 results in a frameshift and premature termination, whereas loss of exons 5 and 6 leads to an in-frame deletion of 112 residues important for catalytic activity of the protein.

Description

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site is associated with altered splicing resulting in multiple RNA products (PMID: 19344451). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2477). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary multiple osteochondromatosis (PMID: 19344451; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the EXT2 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 EXT2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10679937, 19810120).

Description

The variant c.843-2A>C in the EXT2 gene is reported as pathogenic for multiple exostoses type 2 in ClinVar (Variation ID: 2477). This variant has been originally identified by Heinritz et al. (2009) in a male patient who was reported to have also an affected son. This nucleotide substitution results in two different skipping events: either only exon 5 or exons 5 and 6. Loss of exon 5 results in a frameshift with premature termination 18 amino acids downstream (p.Pro249Argfs*18), while loss of exons 5 and 6 leads to the in-frame deletion p.Pro249_Arg360del (PMID: 19344451). This variant has not been reported in gnomAD, 1000 Genomes, NHLI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), or LOVD database v.3.0.
