• chr15-42405930-AG-AG
• NM_000070.3:c.

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PVS1_Moderate

The ENST00000397163.8(CAPN3):​c. variant causes a splice donor, intron change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type MNV, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. The gene CAPN3 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

Genes affected

CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Specifications for CAPN3 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.00729927 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
