Genes affected

COL6A3 (HGNC:2213): (collagen type VI alpha 3 chain) This gene encodes the alpha-3 chain, one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The alpha-3 chain of type VI collagen is much larger than the alpha-1 and -2 chains. This difference in size is largely due to an increase in the number of subdomains, similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains, that are found in the amino terminal globular domain of all the alpha chains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in the type VI collagen genes are associated with Bethlem myopathy, a rare autosomal dominant proximal myopathy with early childhood onset. Mutations in this gene are also a cause of Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy, also referred to as Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy, an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy that is more severe than Bethlem myopathy. Multiple transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only some of these variants has been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]

Variant summary: COL6A3 c.2525T>C (p.Phe842Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the von Willebrand factor, type A (IPR002035) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.6e-05 in 240834 control chromosomes. c.2525T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Dystonia or Limb-girdle muscular dystrophies (example, Nallamilli_2018, Zech_2015), without strong evidence for causality. These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30564623, 26004199). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 (VUS, n=3; Likely benign, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
