Pulmonary Hypertension VCEP
The NM_001204.7(BMPR2):c.240_241insT (p.Lys81Ter) variant is a DNA single thymine base insertion predicted to cause a frameshift, replacing a lysine residue for a stop codon at position 81. The variant is absent from the gnomAD v.2.1.1 controls and v3.0 (PM2_supporting). c.240_241insT was found in a patient with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PMID:20496075). The variant resides in the second exon of BMPR2 and generates a stop codon that is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (PVS1). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for pulmonary arterial hypertension based on ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Pulmonary Hypertension VCEP: PM2_supporting, PVS1 (VCEP specification version v 1.1, 1/18/2024).
Met criteria codes
PM2_Supporting
The variant is absent from gnomAD genomes v3.0 and gnomAD exomes v.2.1.1
PVS1
The insertion of a single thymine in the exon 2 of BMPR2 replaces the lysine residue in position 81 with a stop codon. The presence of a premature stop codon is predicted to result in a truncated form of the protein that is often non-functional. The mRNA in this case is predicted to undergo nonsense-mediated decay.
