Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2

The NM_024301.5(FKRP):​c.539C>A​(p.Ala180Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A180S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

FKRP (HGNC:17997): (fukutin related protein) This gene encodes a protein which is targeted to the medial Golgi apparatus and is necessary for posttranslational modification of dystroglycan. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital muscular dystrophy, cognitive disability, and cerebellar cysts. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 21 uncertain in NM_024301.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 46 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.8498 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -2.4986 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A5, congenital muscular dystrophy with intellectual disability, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy, type A, muscle-eye-brain disease, congenital muscular dystrophy with cerebellar involvement, myopathy caused by variation in FKRP, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type B5, congenital muscular dystrophy without intellectual disability.

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This sequence change replaces alanine with aspartic acid at codon 180 of the FKRP protein (p.Ala180Asp). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between alanine and aspartic acid. While this variant is not present in population databases, the frequency information is unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FKRP-related disease. 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. -
