Genes affected
SGCA (HGNC:10805): (sarcoglycan alpha) This gene encodes a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which is critical to the stability of muscle fiber membranes and to the linking of the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Its expression is thought to be restricted to striated muscle. Mutations in this gene result in type 2D autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D Pathogenic:5
Jul 16, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 74 of the SGCA protein (p.Arg74Trp). 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 missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) (PMID: 9455986, 10993494, 15833425, 18285821, 24464767, 30345904; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188811). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SGCA protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

NM_000023.2(SGCA):c.220C>T(R74W) is a missense variant classified as likely pathogenic in the context of alpha-sarcoglycanopathy. R74W has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 10993494, 18285821, 9455986, 30345904, 31069529, 29382405). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. R74W has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: NFE <0.001%). In summary, NM_000023.2(SGCA):c.220C>T(R74W) is a missense variant that has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: SGCA c.220C>T (p.Arg74Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Dystroglycan-type cadherin-like domain (IPR006644) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 250198 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.220C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (examples: Higuchi_1997, Trabelsi_2008, Saha_2018, Ganapathy_2019). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30345904, 9455986, 31069529, 18285821). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
