Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy 2 Pathogenic:1
Jan 06, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 8 of the SMCHD1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in SMCHD1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23143600). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with facioscapulohumeral-like muscular dystrophy (PMID: 24755953). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464158). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
