Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 0P and 3B. BP4_ModerateBP6

The NM_000117.3(EMD):c.166G>A(p.Ala56Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000284 in 1,091,477 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. There are 11 hemizygotes in GnomAD. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A56V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 22, 2020The p.A56T variant (also known as c.166G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the EMD gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 166. The alanine at codon 56 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was reported in an individual with ARVC who also had a mutation in the PLN gene (Te Rijdt WP et al. Cardiovasc. Pathol. Dec;40:2-6). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
