Genes affected
POMT1 (HGNC:9202): (protein O-mannosyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is an O-mannosyltransferase that requires interaction with the product of the POMT2 gene for enzymatic function. The encoded protein is found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. Defects in this gene are a cause of Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2K (LGMD2K). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

The inherited c.1087C>T, p.(Gln363Ter) variant (annotation based on MANE Select transcript NM_001077365.2) identified in the POMT1 gene is a nonsense variant predicted to lead to the premature termination of the protein at amino acid 363/726 (exon 12/20) and is expected to lead to the loss of protein function via nonsense mediated decay. This variant is found with low frequency in population databases (gnomADv2.1.1, gnomADv3.1.2, BRAVO-TOPMed, All of Us) with highest allele frequency of 4.53e-5 (BRAVO-TOPMed, 12 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes), suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in those databases. The c.1087C>T, p.(Gln363Ter) variant is reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (VarID:95452; 2 stars, 7 submissions, no conflicts) and has been reported in individuals in the literature with Walker-Warburg syndrome in both homozygous state [PMID:12369018], and in compound heterozygosity with a second pathogenic variant [PMID:15522202] (reported as c.1153C>T (p.(Gln385Ter) as annotated from transcript NM_007171). Given its deleterious nature, low frequency in population databases, and observation in affected individuals in the literature in homozygosity and in compound heterozygosity with a second pathogenic variant, the inherited c.1087C>T, p.(Gln363Ter) variant is reported as Pathogenic. -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.5, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies) type A1 (MIM#236670), muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual development), type B, 1 (MIM#613155) and muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (limb-girdle), type C, 1 (MIM#609308). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. The phenotypic spectrum ranges from the severe Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) to milder forms of limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) (PMID: 31311558; OMIM). (I) 0202 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction), but is located in an exon that may undergo alternative splicing. (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v4) <0.01 for a recessive condition (110 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported multiple times as pathogenic in ClinVar. It has also been reported in three affected fetuses with prenatal onset Walker-Warburg syndrome (PMID: 31311558). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity (ClinVar).

Variant summary: POMT1 c.1153C>T (p.Gln385X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 249572 control chromosomes. c.1153C>T has been reported in the literature in homozygous twins affected with Walker-Warburg syndrome (e.g. Beltran-Valero_2002). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12369018). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 95452). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln385*) in the POMT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in POMT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12369018, 15637732, 16575835). This variant is present in population databases (rs200056620, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Walker-Warburg syndrome (PMID: 12369018, 28116189, 31311558). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 95452). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
