Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_003494.4: c.401C>T variant in DYSF, which is also known as NM_001130987.2: c.404C>T p.(Pro135Leu), is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of proline by leucine at amino acid 134, p.(Pro134Leu). This variant has been observed in two individuals with features consistent with LGMD (PMID:36983702; 23406536; 30564623; LOVD Individual #00222735); however, in both cases it was identified in cis with a null variant, including one classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (NM_003494.4: c.5022del p.(Phe1674LeufsTer48), PMID:36983702) (BP2; PP4 and PM3 not applicable). The filtering allele frequency of this variant is 0.0001865 in gnomAD v4.1.0 genomes (the upper threshold of the 95% CI of 3/41580 African/African American chromosomes), which is greater than the ClinGen LGMD VCEP threshold for PM2_Supporting (≤0.0001) (PM2 not met). Immunofluorescence and 2-A assays of dysferlin membrane localization in HEK293T cells showed that the Pro134Leu protein reached the cell membrane, indicating no significant impact on this aspect of protein function (PMID:35028538; BS3 not met). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.15, which is above the LGMD VCEP threshold of ≤0.1 for BP4 (criterion not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 06/17/2025): BP2.

Genes affected

DYSF (HGNC:3097): (dysferlin) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ferlin family and is a skeletal muscle protein found associated with the sarcolemma. It is involved in muscle contraction and contains C2 domains that play a role in calcium-mediated membrane fusion events, suggesting that it may be involved in membrane regeneration and repair. In addition, the protein encoded by this gene binds caveolin-3, a skeletal muscle membrane protein which is important in the formation of caveolae. Specific mutations in this gene have been shown to cause autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) as well as Miyoshi myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]
