NM_000070.3:c.1800+21C>T

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP7BS1BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000070.3: c.1800+21C>T variant in CAPN3 is an intronic variant that does not occur in a splice region (+7/-21). The filtering allele frequency for this variant is 0.002152 for the European (non-Finnish) population in gnomAD v4.1.0 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 2461/1105660 exome chromosomes), which is greater than the ClinGen LGMD VCEP threshold of 0.001 for BS1, and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). The SpliceAI prediction score for this variant is 0.01, which is less than the VCEP threshold of 0.05 (BP4, BP7). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/09/2025): BS1, BP4, BP7.

Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The NM_000070.3: c.1800+21C>T variant in CAPN3 is an intronic variant that does not occur in a splice region (+7/-21). The filtering allele frequency for this variant is 0.002152 for the European (non-Finnish) population in gnomAD v4.1.0 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 2461/1105660 exome chromosomes), which is greater than the ClinGen LGMD VCEP threshold of 0.001 for BS1, and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). The SpliceAI prediction score for this variant is 0.01, which is less than the VCEP threshold of 0.05 (BP4, BP7). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/09/2025): BS1, BP4, BP7. -
