Genes affected
EMD (HGNC:3331): (emerin) Emerin is a serine-rich nuclear membrane protein and a member of the nuclear lamina-associated protein family. It mediates membrane anchorage to the cytoskeleton. Dreifuss-Emery muscular dystrophy is an X-linked inherited degenerative myopathy resulting from mutation in the emerin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 10, 2012p.Arg204Cys c.610 CGT>TGT in exon 6 of the EMD gene (NM_000117.2): The Arg204Cys variant in the EMD gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Arg204Cys was not observed in approximately 6,300 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Arg204Cys results in a semi-conservative amino acid substitution of a positively charged Arginine residue with a neutral, polar Cystein residue, which might affect disulfide bonds. In silico analysis predicts Arg204Cys is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Nevertheless, the Arg204 residue is not well conserved, as a Cysteine residue is present at this position in horse. Also, no missense mutations in nearby codons have been reported in association with EDMD. With the clinical and molecular information available at this time, we cannot definitively determine if Arg204Cys is a disease-causing mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in DCM panel(s). -
X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 30, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 204 of the EMD protein (p.Arg204Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs782299893, gnomAD 0.005%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EMD-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201776). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt EMD protein function. 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. -
