Genes affected
DOK7 (HGNC:26594): (docking protein 7) The protein encoded by this gene is essential for neuromuscular synaptogenesis. The protein functions in aneural activation of muscle-specific receptor kinase, which is required for postsynaptic differentiation, and in the subsequent clustering of the acetylcholine receptor in myotubes. This protein can also induce autophosphorylation of muscle-specific receptor kinase. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial limb-girdle myasthenia autosomal recessive, which is also known as congenital myasthenic syndrome type 1B. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Congenital myasthenic syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 22, 2024Variant summary: DOK7 c.481G>A (p.Gly161Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the IRS-type PTB domain (IPR002404) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 250800 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in DOK7 causing Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome (4e-05 vs 0.0014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.481G>A has been reported in the literature in at least two compound heterozygous individuals affected with clinical features of Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome (e.g., Cossins_2012, Herman_2021). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. AChR clustering assays demonstated the variant results in a significant reduction in the number of clusters when compared to wild type. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22661499, 33146414). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 560991). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Fetal akinesia deformation sequence 1;C1850792:Congenital myasthenic syndrome 10 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 16, 2022This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 161 of the DOK7 protein (p.Gly161Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs758131044, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital myasthenic syndrome (PMID: 22661499, 33146414). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 560991). 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 DOK7 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects DOK7 function (PMID: 22661499). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
