Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PS1_Very_StrongPM1PM2PP3_StrongPP5

The NM_000070.3(CAPN3):c.985G>C(p.Gly329Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Likely pathogenicin ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. G329G) has been classified as Likely benign.

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:1Uncertain:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 30, 2018A different variant (c.985G>A) giving rise to the same protein effect observed here (p.Gly329Arg) has been reported in an individual affected with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 28915917, 16627476, Invitae), indicating that this residue may be critical for protein function. This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 329 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Gly329Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CAPN3-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
