Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BS2
The NM_003919.3(SGCE):c.1060C>T(p.Pro354Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000404 in 1,609,384 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★).
SGCE (HGNC:10808): (sarcoglycan epsilon) This gene encodes the epsilon member of the sarcoglycan family. Sarcoglycans are transmembrane proteins that are components of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex, which link the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Unlike other family members which are predominantly expressed in striated muscle, the epsilon sarcoglycan is more broadly expressed. Mutations in this gene are associated with myoclonus-dystonia syndrome. This gene is imprinted, with preferential expression from the paternal allele. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
CASD1 (HGNC:16014): (CAS1 domain containing 1) Enables N-acetylneuraminate 7-O(or 9-O)-acetyltransferase activity. Involved in carbohydrate metabolic process. Is integral component of Golgi membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 354 of the SGCE protein (p.Pro354Ser). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SGCE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464150). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SGCE protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
