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

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 4-3485607-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-3485607-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1279.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr4-3485607-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic]. Variant chr4-3485607-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.3344097). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg201*) in the DOK7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DOK7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16794080, 16917026, 18626973, 19261599). This variant is present in population databases (rs118203995, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with congenital myasthenic syndrome (PMID: 16917026, 25849006). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1279). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on gene product structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal affects DOK7 function (PMID: 18165682). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
