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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with EMD-related conditions. This variant disrupts the C-terminus of the EMD protein. Other variant(s) that disrupt this region (p.Trp226*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8589715, 15967842). This suggests that variants that disrupt this region of the protein are likely to be causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the EMD gene (p.Leu217Profs*31). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 38 amino acids of the EMD protein. -
