Clinical Validity Scoring Notes and points

Variant/Case Evidence:

RANBP2 c.1754C>T p.T585M

• REVEL: 0.178

• 2 alleles in GnomAD v4.

• PMID: 19118815: 35 unrelated families with clinical dx of ANE. This variant was identified in 9 of the families. Haplotype analysis was done and 7 families showed unique haplotypes, so only including those 7 families:

  • Descr. as c.1880C/T, p.Thr585Met.

  • Familial cases (total 3.5 points)

    • Family 586: 0.5 points

    • Family 119: 0.5 points

• PMID: 19811512: 9 yo Caucasian female with rapid-onset severe encephalopathy triggered by viral infections. MRI characteristic of ANE during both episodes.

  • Mother had an episode of ‘encephalitis/polyneuritis’ after having a viral infection at the age of 19 years; she has had a foot drop since then.

  • Variant identified in proband and mother, de novo in mother.

  • Reported as c.1880C→T.

  • 0.5 points (not counting mother since phenotype is unclear/unconfirmed)

• PMID: 34377735: 9 month old female with seizure and 4 day hx of fever. EEG was consistent with encephalopathy. MRI suggestive of possible acute viral encephalitis.

  • Identified RANBP2 (c.1754C>T; p.Thr585Met) on an epilepsy panel. Parents not tested.

  • 0.5 points

• PMID: 37090838: Two Brazilian families with ANE and c.1754C > T (p.Thr585Met) (total 1 point)

  • Family 1 (0.5 points)

  • Family 2 (0.5 points)

• PMID: 26923722

  • Patient P1, 10 month old boy with ANE confirmed on MRI.

  • p.Thr585Met identified, inherited from healthy father. (0.5 points)

• Other reports of this variant were present but not reviewed. From HGMD, PMIDs: 21945312, 25128471, 24321870, 25522933, 27591117, 28336122, 29741717, 29687329, 31589614, 30796099, 32760653, 33879512, 34059398, 33777149, 33761695, 34400285, 33726816, 35870896.

RANBP2 c.1958C>T p.Thr653Ile

• REVEL: 0.178.

  • Family 671: 0.5 points

• PMID: 25170550

  • 28 month old with ANE, confirmed on MRI.

  • Older sister died at 6 months within 12 hours of presenting with fever and seizures.

  • Father, paternal grandmother, and deceased sibling also had the same variant.

  • “DNA from the index case was sequenced” - not sure what method was used, it seems like the authors may have looked at RANBP2 specifically.

  • 0.5 points.
