Genes affected

EMD (HGNC:3331): (emerin) Emerin is a serine-rich nuclear membrane protein and a member of the nuclear lamina-associated protein family. It mediates membrane anchorage to the cytoskeleton. Dreifuss-Emery muscular dystrophy is an X-linked inherited degenerative myopathy resulting from mutation in the emerin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

c.83-13C>G in intron 1 of EMD: This variant is not expected to have clinical sig nificance because it has been identified in 1% (63/5981) of African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs201140396). -

Variant summary: EMD c.83-13C>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.001 in 192415 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.01 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.41 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in EMD causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.0071), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.83-13C>G has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM). This report however, does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
