Genes affected
FKTN (HGNC:3622): (fukutin) The protein encoded by this gene is a putative transmembrane protein that is localized to the cis-Golgi compartment, where it may be involved in the glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle. The encoded protein is thought to be a glycosyltransferase and could play a role in brain development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2M (LGMD2M), and dilated cardiomyopathy type 1X (CMD1X). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu15*) in the FKTN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FKTN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17044012, 17878207, 18752264). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with muscular dystrophy (PMID: 19396839). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555661). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
