Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Moderate

The NM_001079802.2(FKTN):​c.400G>T​(p.Gly134*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. G134G) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

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]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

NM_001079802.1(FKTN):c.400G>T(G134*) is expected to be pathogenic in the context of FKTN-related disorders. This variant is predicted to lead to an abnormal or absent protein product due to the creation of a premature termination codon in FKTN, a gene where loss-of-function variants are known to be pathogenic. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
