Genes affected
BAG3 (HGNC:939): (BAG cochaperone 3) BAG proteins compete with Hip for binding to the Hsc70/Hsp70 ATPase domain and promote substrate release. All the BAG proteins have an approximately 45-amino acid BAG domain near the C terminus but differ markedly in their N-terminal regions. The protein encoded by this gene contains a WW domain in the N-terminal region and a BAG domain in the C-terminal region. The BAG domains of BAG1, BAG2, and BAG3 interact specifically with the Hsc70 ATPase domain in vitro and in mammalian cells. All 3 proteins bind with high affinity to the ATPase domain of Hsc70 and inhibit its chaperone activity in a Hip-repressible manner. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 30, 2023Variant summary: BAG3 c.362G>A (p.Arg121Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251444 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.362G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing in at-least one individual within a cohort of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients (example, Horvat_2019). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Myofibrillar Myopathy, BAG3-Related/Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29892087). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 26, 2015The p.Arg121Gln variant in BAG3 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy and was absent from large population studies. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p .Arg121Gln variant is uncertain. -
Myofibrillar myopathy 6;C3151293:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1HH Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 17, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 121 of the BAG3 protein (p.Arg121Gln). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29892087). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228455). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BAG3 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 20, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Identified in a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in published literature who harbored an additional cardiogenetic variant (PMID: 29892087); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29892087) -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 24, 2023The p.R121Q variant (also known as c.362G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the BAG3 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 362. The arginine at codon 121 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was reported in a dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) cohort (Horvat C et al. Genet Med, 2019 Jan;21:133-143). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
