Genes affected
CAV3 (HGNC:1529): (caveolin 3) This gene encodes a caveolin family member, which functions as a component of the caveolae plasma membranes found in most cell types. Caveolin proteins are proposed to be scaffolding proteins for organizing and concentrating certain caveolin-interacting molecules. Mutations identified in this gene lead to interference with protein oligomerization or intra-cellular routing, disrupting caveolae formation and resulting in Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophy type-1C (LGMD-1C), hyperCKemia or rippling muscle disease (RMD). Alternative splicing has been identified for this locus, with inclusion or exclusion of a differentially spliced intron. In addition, transcripts utilize multiple polyA sites and contain two potential translation initiation sites. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
OXTR (HGNC:8529): (oxytocin receptor) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor family and acts as a receptor for oxytocin. Its activity is mediated by G proteins which activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The oxytocin-oxytocin receptor system plays an important role in the uterus during parturition. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The CAV3 c.377G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg126His. This variant was reported in an individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy; however, this variant was also identified in two of her unaffected siblings (reported as R125H, de Paula et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11251997). This variant was also reported in another individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy; however, this individual also harbored additional variants in genes associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (patient 196 in Table 1 and in Additional file 2, Fichna et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29970176). This variant has also been reported in an individual with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (Table S1, Brion et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24981977). This variant is reported in 0.0026% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/3-8787474-G-A). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 126 of the CAV3 protein (p.Arg126His). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) (PMID: 11251997, 29970176). This variant is also known as R125H. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31713). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The histidine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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.
