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]

p.Cys106Cys in exon 2 of CAPN3: This variant is not expected to have clinical si gnificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located wi thin the splice consensus sequence. It has been identified in 0.9% (78/8598) of European American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequenc ing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs117609395).

This 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.
