Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLifecell International Pvt. Ltd-A Homozygote Intron variant c.802-9G>A in Exon 5 of the CAPN3 gene that results in the amino acid substitution was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00002/0.00003 in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is high, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score. Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic [Variation ID: 280037]. The observed variant has been reported in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Studies have shown that this variant results in abnormal splicing and introduces a premature termination codon (Krahn M, et.al, 2007). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 07, 2024This sequence change falls in intron 5 of the CAPN3 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CAPN3 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs761211705, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 16141003, 17979987). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280037). Studies have shown that this variant results in abnormal splicing and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 17979987). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
