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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the DOK7 gene (p.Ser422Leufs*97). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 83 amino acid(s) of the DOK7 protein and extend the protein by 13 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs751257124, gnomAD 0.02%). This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with congenital myasthenic syndrome and fetal akinesia deformation sequence (PMID: 16917026, 21850686, 22661499). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1274). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: DOK7 c.1263dupC (p.Ser422LeufsX97) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 237478 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in DOK7 causing Congenital myasthenic syndrome (7.6e-05 vs 0.0014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1263dupC has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals affected with Congenital myasthenic syndrome (Selcen_2008, Anderson_2008). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The DOK7 c.1263dupC variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Ser422Leufs*97). This variant has been reported in individuals with autosomal recessive congenital myasthenic syndrome (Beeson et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16917026; Anderson et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18161030; Cossins et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22661499). It has also been reported in the homozygous state in a case of fetal akinesia deformation sequence (Table 1, Bruno et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21850686). This variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in DOK7 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
