Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A Pathogenic:1Benign:4
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
Pathogenic, flagged submissionclinical testingFoundation for Research in Genetics and Endocrinology, FRIGE's Institute of Human GeneticsAug 16, 2017This mutation has been reported in 1000 genomes and ExAC databases with minor allele frequency of 0.9% and 0.28%.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 13, 2023Variant summary: CAPN3 c.2332G>A (p.Asp778Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the penta-EF-hand domain (IPR029531) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0022 in 251396 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.031 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 7 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 10-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CAPN3 causing an autosomal recessive Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy phenotype (0.0032), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.2332G>A has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in one individual affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (Pathak_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. The majority classified the variant as benign (n=3)/likely benign (n=3) and one classified it as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
