Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PVS1 PS3 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000070.3(CAPN3):​c.2051-1G>T variant causes a splice acceptor, intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000205 in 1,460,456 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV004047120: Experimental studies show that this variant results in reduced expression of the targeted region of cDNA indicating potential alternative splicing and loss of the corresponding transcript by nonsense-mediated decay Ankala et al., 2013.". The gene CAPN3 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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]

ACMG classification

Specifications for CAPN3 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.1, offset of 5, new splice context is: tctccatccccccatacaAGgac. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV004047120: Experimental studies show that this variant results in reduced expression of the targeted region of cDNA indicating potential alternative splicing and loss of the corresponding transcript by nonsense-mediated decay Ankala et al., 2013.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 15-42409930-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-42409930-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 281184.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
