Genes affected
COL6A3 (HGNC:2213): (collagen type VI alpha 3 chain) This gene encodes the alpha-3 chain, one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The alpha-3 chain of type VI collagen is much larger than the alpha-1 and -2 chains. This difference in size is largely due to an increase in the number of subdomains, similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains, that are found in the amino terminal globular domain of all the alpha chains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in the type VI collagen genes are associated with Bethlem myopathy, a rare autosomal dominant proximal myopathy with early childhood onset. Mutations in this gene are also a cause of Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy, also referred to as Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy, an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy that is more severe than Bethlem myopathy. Multiple transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only some of these variants has been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.5068G>A (p.E1690K) alteration is located in exon 11 (coding exon 10) of the COL6A3 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5068, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 1690 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Collagen 6-related myopathy Uncertain:1
Mar 30, 2023
Molecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne Hospital
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change in COL6A3 is predicted to replace glutamic acid with lysine at codon 1690, p.(Glu1690Lys). The glutamic acid residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the VWFA 9 domain. There is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and lysine. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 is 0.001% (11/113,666 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in any individuals with COL6A3-related disease. The variant has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar ID: 476531). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (6/6 algorithms). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.5.1, this variant is classified as a VARIANT OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE. Following criteria are met: PP3. -

Bethlem myopathy 1A Uncertain:1
Nov 20, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1690 of the COL6A3 protein (p.Glu1690Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs144451523, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dystonia (internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 476531). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt COL6A3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
