Genes affected
LDB3 (HGNC:15710): (LIM domain binding 3) This gene encodes a PDZ domain-containing protein. PDZ motifs are modular protein-protein interaction domains consisting of 80-120 amino acid residues. PDZ domain-containing proteins interact with each other in cytoskeletal assembly or with other proteins involved in targeting and clustering of membrane proteins. The protein encoded by this gene interacts with alpha-actinin-2 through its N-terminal PDZ domain and with protein kinase C via its C-terminal LIM domains. The LIM domain is a cysteine-rich motif defined by 50-60 amino acids containing two zinc-binding modules. This protein also interacts with all three members of the myozenin family. Mutations in this gene have been associated with myofibrillar myopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified; all isoforms have N-terminal PDZ domains while only longer isoforms (1, 2 and 5) have C-terminal LIM domains.

Variant summary: LDB3 c.1253C>G (p.Pro418Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.7e-05 in 248242 control chromosomes.The observed variant frequency is approximately 3.9-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in LDB3 causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), suggesting that the variant could be benign, however, evidence is insufficient to draw any conclusions. To our knowledge, c.1253C>G has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30021846). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406810). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The p.Pro418Arg variant in LDB3 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 14/65594 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP r s141870580). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest th at the p.Pro418Arg variant may impact the protein, though this information is no t predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signifi cance of the p.Pro418Arg variant is uncertain. -

The LDB3 gene has multiple clinically relevant transcripts. This variant occurs in alternate transcript NM_007078.3, and corresponds to NM_001080116.1:c.*16974C>G in the primary transcript. This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 418 of the LDB3 protein (p.Pro418Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs141870580, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LDB3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406810). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.P418R variant (also known as c.1253C>G), located in coding exon 9 of the LDB3 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 1253. The proline at codon 418 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in an individual referred for genetic testing for dilated cardiomyopathy (VanDyke RE et al. J Genet Couns. 2021 04;30(2):503-512). This amino acid position is highly conserved on limited sequence alignment. 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. -
