Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BP6BS1BS2
The NM_001079802.2(FKTN):c.-90delA variant causes a splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00912 in 152,092 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 23 homozygotes. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).
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]
Variant 9-105573742-CA-C is Benign according to our data. Variant chr9-105573742-CA-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 162563.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=2, Benign=1}.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00912 (1387/152092) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.0323 (1339/41482). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0308. There are 23 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 629 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
