Genes affected
DOK7 (HGNC:26594): (docking protein 7) The protein encoded by this gene is essential for neuromuscular synaptogenesis. The protein functions in aneural activation of muscle-specific receptor kinase, which is required for postsynaptic differentiation, and in the subsequent clustering of the acetylcholine receptor in myotubes. This protein can also induce autophosphorylation of muscle-specific receptor kinase. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial limb-girdle myasthenia autosomal recessive, which is also known as congenital myasthenic syndrome type 1B. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.48).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.000205 (94/459580) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.00794 (92/11588). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00663. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 41 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 6. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Fetal akinesia deformation sequence 1;C1850792:Congenital myasthenic syndrome 10 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 01, 2021This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the DOK7 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DOK7 protein. While this variant is present in population databases (rs577687998), the frequency information is unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DOK7-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
