Criteria Specification Information

Criteria Specifications for this VCEP
Evidence submitted by expert panel
Rett and Angelman-like Disorders VCEP
The allele frequency of the p.R344W variant in MECP2 is 0.01% in South Asian sub population in gnomAD, which is high enough to be classified as likely benign based on thresholds defined by the ClinGen Rett/Angelman-like Expert Panel for Rett/AS-like conditions (BS1). The p.R344W variant is observed in at least 2 unaffected individuals (internal database) (BS2). In summary, the p.R344W variant in MECP2 is classified as benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria (BS1, BS2).
