Genes affected

FKTN (HGNC:3622): (fukutin) The protein encoded by this gene is a putative transmembrane protein that is localized to the cis-Golgi compartment, where it may be involved in the glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle. The encoded protein is thought to be a glycosyltransferase and could play a role in brain development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2M (LGMD2M), and dilated cardiomyopathy type 1X (CMD1X). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

The p.R256* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.766C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the FKTN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 766. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg256*) in the FKTN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FKTN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17044012, 17878207, 18752264). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hyperCKemia (PMID: 24144914). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 842124). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
