Genes affected
DYSF (HGNC:3097): (dysferlin) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ferlin family and is a skeletal muscle protein found associated with the sarcolemma. It is involved in muscle contraction and contains C2 domains that play a role in calcium-mediated membrane fusion events, suggesting that it may be involved in membrane regeneration and repair. In addition, the protein encoded by this gene binds caveolin-3, a skeletal muscle membrane protein which is important in the formation of caveolae. Specific mutations in this gene have been shown to cause autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) as well as Miyoshi myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsMar 07, 2023This variant is expected to result in the loss of a functional protein. The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In multiple individuals with Miyoshi muscular dystrophy, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic. This variant is a common founder originating from Sueca, Spain (PMID: 16087766). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 16, 2023Variant summary: DYSF c.5713C>T (p.Arg1905X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic within ClinVar (e.g. c.5938A>T [p.Lys1980Ter], c.5953_5956del [p.Gln1985fs]). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251484 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5713C>T has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in multiple individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy or Miyoshi Myopathy (e.g. Vilchez_2005, Park_2012, Ankala_2014, Izumi_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Seven ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: all have classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Qualitative or quantitative defects of dysferlin Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 04, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1905*) in the DYSF gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DYSF are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17698709, 20301480). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908959, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with dysferlinopathy (PMID: 16087766). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6676). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
