Genes affected

COL6A1 (HGNC:2211): (collagen type VI alpha 1 chain) The collagens are a superfamily of proteins that play a role in maintaining the integrity of various tissues. Collagens are extracellular matrix proteins and have a triple-helical domain as their common structural element. Collagen VI is a major structural component of microfibrils. The basic structural unit of collagen VI is a heterotrimer of the alpha1(VI), alpha2(VI), and alpha3(VI) chains. The alpha2(VI) and alpha3(VI) chains are encoded by the COL6A2 and COL6A3 genes, respectively. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha 1 subunit of type VI collagen (alpha1(VI) chain). Mutations in the genes that code for the collagen VI subunits result in the autosomal dominant disorder, Bethlem myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.008746356 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 21-45990285-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-45990285-G-C is described in CliVar as Pathogenic. Clinvar id is 2860400.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr21-45990285-G-C is described in CliVar as Pathogenic.

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 12 of the COL6A1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (PMID: 15563506). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 12, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 15563506). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
