Genes affected
COL6A2 (HGNC:2212): (collagen type VI alpha 2 chain) This gene encodes one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The product of this gene contains several domains similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in this gene are associated with Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy. Three transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (G>A) at coding position 1336 of the COL6A2 gene that results in an aspartic acid to asparagine amino acid change at residue 446 of the COL6A2 protein. The Asp446 residue falls in the triple helical domain which plays a critical role in the proper assembly of collagen VI (PMID: 20301676). This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar) that has been reported in a study of individuals affected by a myopathy (PMID:27854218). This variant is present in 60 of 138,852 (0.04%) alleles in the gnomAD population database. Multiple bioinformatic tools predict that this aspartic acid to asparagine amino acid change would be damaging, and the aspartic acid residue is highly conserved at this position across the vertebrate species examined. Studies examining the functiol consequence of this variant have not been published, to our knowledge. At this time, there is insufficient evidence to determine if this variant is pathogenic or benign. Therefore, we consider this a variant of uncertain significance. ACMG Criteria: PP3 -

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 benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
