Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_003494.4: c.1860C>T (p.Tyr620=) variant in DYSF, which is also known as NM_001130987.2: c.1914C>T (p.Tyr638=), is a synonymous (silent) variant that is not located in a splice region (outside of the first and the last 3 bases of the exon). The filtering allele frequency is 0.05612 for South Asian exome chromosomes in gnomAD v2.1.1 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 1787/30616), which is higher than the VCEP threshold of 0.003 (BA1). The SpliceAI prediction score for this variant is 0.08, which is greater than the VCEP threshold of <0.05 (BP4 and BP7 not applied). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/08/2025): BA1.

Genes affected
DYSF (HGNC:3097): (dysferlin) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ferlin family and is a skeletal muscle protein found associated with the sarcolemma. It is involved in muscle contraction and contains C2 domains that play a role in calcium-mediated membrane fusion events, suggesting that it may be involved in membrane regeneration and repair. In addition, the protein encoded by this gene binds caveolin-3, a skeletal muscle membrane protein which is important in the formation of caveolae. Specific mutations in this gene have been shown to cause autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) as well as Miyoshi myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
