Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2PP3
The NM_001077365.2(POMT1):c.880G>A(p.Gly294Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000342 in 1,461,640 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★).
POMT1 (HGNC:9202): (protein O-mannosyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is an O-mannosyltransferase that requires interaction with the product of the POMT2 gene for enzymatic function. The encoded protein is found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. Defects in this gene are a cause of Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2K (LGMD2K). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with POMT1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine with serine at codon 316 of the POMT1 protein (p.Gly316Ser). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glycine and serine. -
