Genes affected
SELENON (HGNC:15999): (selenoprotein N) This gene encodes a glycoprotein that is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. It plays an important role in cell protection against oxidative stress, and in the regulation of redox-related calcium homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with early onset muscle disorders, referred to as SEPN1-related myopathy. SEPN1-related myopathy consists of 4 autosomal recessive disorders, originally thought to be separate entities: rigid spine muscular dystrophy (RSMD1), the classical form of multiminicore disease, desmin related myopathy with Mallory-body like inclusions, and congenital fiber-type disproportion (CFTD). This protein is a selenoprotein, containing the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). Sec is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, designated the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon, rather than as a stop signal. A second stop-codon redefinition element (SRE) adjacent to the UGA codon has been identified in this gene (PMID:15791204). SRE is a phylogenetically conserved stem-loop structure that stimulates readthrough at the UGA codon, and augments the Sec insertion efficiency by SECIS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 04, 2023This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the SELENON mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 85. 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. Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with SELENON-related conditions (PMID: 12192640, 23394784, 28558865). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4491). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 26, 2015The c.1 A>G variant in the SEPN1 gene has been identified previously, both in the compound heterozygousand homozygous state, in patients with SEPN1-related disorders. Patient's presented with multiple featuresincluding rigid spine, nasal speech and various histological findings including minicores (Ferreiro et al., 2002;Maggi et al., 2013). The variant alters the initiator Methionine codon, and the resultant protein would bedescribed as p.Met1?" to signify that it is not known if the loss of Met1 means that all protein translation iscompletely prevented or if an abnormal protein is produced using an alternate Methionine initiator codon.Therefore, c.1 A>G is considered a pathogenic variant." -
