Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_003919.3(SGCE):c.304C>T(p.Arg102*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000248 in 1,611,212 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R102R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect and show that this variant interferes with SGCE gene expression (PMID: 28155872); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 11528394, 12874409, 31440721, 36161439, 17853490, 22363319, 31338059, 34906973, 33022436, 35995778, 33808167, 18205193, 28155872) -
This variant is expected to result in the loss of a functional protein. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant appears to segregate with disease in at least one family. -

Myoclonic dystonia 11    Pathogenic:3 
This variant was determined to be pathogenic according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg102*) in the SGCE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SGCE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12821748, 15389977, 17853490, 24297365). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with myoclonus–dystonia (PMID: 11528394, 12874409, 18205193). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5769). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
SGCE-related disorder    Pathogenic:1 
The SGCE c.304C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg102*). This variant has been documented to be causative for myoclonus-dystonia syndrome (Zimprich et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11528394). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. In ClinVar, this variant has been interpreted as pathogenic by multiple submitters (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/5769/). Nonsense variants in SGCE are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
