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]

Variant summary: DYSF c.3121C>T (p.Arg1041Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00017 in 250558 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in DYSF causing Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (0.00017 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3121C>T has been observed in individuals affected with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B or Miyoshi myopathy (e.g. Kawabe_2004, Moore_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15469449, 33610434). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 286743). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1041 of the DYSF protein (p.Arg1041Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs144598063, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and/or Miyoshi myopathy (PMID: 15469449, 33610434). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 286743). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on DYSF protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The DYSF c.3121C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1041Cys. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in an individual with Miyoshi myopathy (Kawabe et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15469449). This variant has also been reported in the compound heterozygous state in two additional individuals with dysferlinopathy and reduced or absent dysferlin on muscle biopsy; however one of the individuals also harbored a third DYSF variant (Table S1 in Moore et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33610434). This variant is reported in 0.037% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Additionally, gnomAD v.4.1.0 reports a homozygous individual (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-71570688-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r4). Given the conflicting evidence, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
