Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Moderate
The NM_001077365.2(POMT1):c.2004-1_2005delGGT(p.Arg668fs) variant causes a frameshift, splice acceptor, splice region, intron change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 1/1 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R668R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
POMT1 (HGNC:9202): (protein O-mannosyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is an O-mannosyltransferase that requires interaction with the product of the POMT2 gene for enzymatic function. The encoded protein is found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. Defects in this gene are a cause of Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2K (LGMD2K). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
