Genes affected
SGCA (HGNC:10805): (sarcoglycan alpha) This gene encodes a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which is critical to the stability of muscle fiber membranes and to the linking of the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Its expression is thought to be restricted to striated muscle. Mutations in this gene result in type 2D autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 25, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 98 of the SGCA protein (p.Arg98Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs138945081, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of SGCA-related conditions (PMID: 7668821, 9032047, 30107846, 30764848). 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: 284708). 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 expected to disrupt SGCA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg98 amino acid residue in SGCA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7668821, 8069911, 9192266, 12746421, 22095924, 27120200). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 02, 2017The R98C variant has been reported in multiple individuals with LMGD2D who harbor an additional SGCA variant (Ljunggren et al., 1995; Duggan et al., 1997; Guglieri et al., 2008). This variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The R98C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position conserved in mammals within the cadherin-like domain of the SGCA protein (Sandona et al., 2009). Missense variants at the same residue (R98S/H) and in nearby residues (A93V; D97G; I103F/T) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with limb girdle muscular dystrophy (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. However, in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. -

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 31, 2024Variant summary: SGCA c.292C>T (p.Arg98Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Dystroglycan-type cadherin-like domain (IPR006644) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 247066 control chromosomes. c.292C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive as a compound heterozygous phenotype (e.g. Magri_2015) or in at least one homozygous individual with clinical features of Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy in a setting of clinical exome sequencing (e.g. Mahfouz_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.293G>A, p.Arg98His), supporting the critical relevance of codon 98 to SGCA protein function. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26404900, 32382396). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 284708). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
