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 was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.06621128).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000252 (365/1445682) while in subpopulation MID AF = 0.00534 (30/5622). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00384. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 186 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 88. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 2 AR geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 475 of the DOK7 protein (p.Trp475Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs777626370, gnomAD 0.06%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DOK7-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 452145). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The cysteine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the DOK7 gene. The W475C variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The W475C variant is observed in 4/5282 (0.1%) alleles from individuals of Latino background, including 1 homozygous individual in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The W475C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
