Genes affected
DMD (HGNC:2928): (dystrophin) This gene spans a genomic range of greater than 2 Mb and encodes a large protein containing an N-terminal actin-binding domain and multiple spectrin repeats. The encoded protein forms a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which bridges the inner cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. Deletions, duplications, and point mutations at this gene locus may cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), or cardiomyopathy. Alternative promoter usage and alternative splicing result in numerous distinct transcript variants and protein isoforms for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.D219E variant (also known as c.657T>A), located in coding exon 8 of the DMD gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 657. The aspartic acid at codon 219 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.0022% (4/182437) total alleles studied, with 1 hemizygote observed. The highest observed frequency was 0.0289% (4/13828) of East Asian alleles. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
