Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points: 0P and 9B. BP2BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_003494.4: c.3992G>T variant in DYSF, which is also known as NM_001130987.2: c.4046G>T p.(Arg1349Leu), is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of arginine by leucine at amino acid 1331 (p.Arg1331Leu). The filtering allele frequency of the variant is 0.03441 for European (non-Finnish) genome chromosomes in gnomAD v2.1.1 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 943/31374), which is higher than the VCEP threshold of 0.003 (BA1). This variant has also been observed in cis with the variant c.5836_5839del p.(Gln1946TrpfsTer19), which is classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (PMID:19528035) (BP2). The SpliceAI score for this variant is 0, suggesting it does not impact splicing. However, the computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.39, which is above the LGMD VCEP threshold predicting a benign impact on DYSF function (≤0.1; BP4 not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as 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; 01/08/2025): BA1, 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]

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The NM_003494.4: c.3992G>T variant in DYSF, which is also known as NM_001130987.2: c.4046G>T p.(Arg1349Leu), is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of arginine by leucine at amino acid 1331 (p.Arg1331Leu). The filtering allele frequency of the variant is 0.03441 for European (non-Finnish) genome chromosomes in gnomAD v2.1.1 (the lower threshold of the 95% CI of 943/31374), which is higher than the VCEP threshold of 0.003 (BA1). This variant has also been observed in cis with the variant c.5836_5839del p.(Gln1946TrpfsTer19), which is classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (PMID: 19528035) (BP2). The SpliceAI score for this variant is 0, suggesting it does not impact splicing. However, the computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.39, which is above the LGMD VCEP threshold predicting a benign impact on DYSF function (≤0.1; BP4 not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as 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; 01/08/2025): BA1, BP2. -
