Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -10 ACMG points: 0P and 10B. BA1 BP4 BP7

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000232.5: c.*3043A>G variant is located in the 3’UTR of SGCB. Because the variant is located in the 3’UTR, it is not expected to alter the amino acid sequence. The filtering allele frequency of this variant is 0.006250 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 460/68042 genome chromosomes) in the European (non-Finnish) population in gnomAD v3.1.2, which is higher than the LGMD VCEP threshold (0.002) for BA1, meeting this criterion (BA1). The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.00 for donor and acceptor loss, suggesting that the variant has no impact on splicing (BP4, BP7). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/08/2025): BA1, BP4, BP7.

Genes affected

SGCB (HGNC:10806): (sarcoglycan beta) This gene encodes a member of the sarcoglycan family. Sarcoglycans are transmembrane components in the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex which help stabilize the muscle fiber membranes and link the muscle cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Mutations in this gene have been associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

The NM_000232.5: c.*3043A>G variant is located in the 3’UTR of SGCB. Because the variant is located in the 3’UTR, it is not expected to alter the amino acid sequence. The filtering allele frequency of this variant is 0.006250 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 460/68042 genome chromosomes) in the European (non-Finnish) population in gnomAD v3.1.2, which is higher than the LGMD VCEP threshold (0.002) for BA1, meeting this criterion (BA1). The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.00 for donor and acceptor loss, suggesting that the variant has no impact on splicing (BP4, BP7). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/08/2025): BA1, BP4, BP7. -

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