Genes affected
DMD (HGNC:2928): (dystrophin) This gene spans a genomic range of greater than 2 Mb and encodes a large protein containing an N-terminal actin-binding domain and multiple spectrin repeats. The encoded protein forms a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which bridges the inner cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. Deletions, duplications, and point mutations at this gene locus may cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), or cardiomyopathy. Alternative promoter usage and alternative splicing result in numerous distinct transcript variants and protein isoforms for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.014559595 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 11, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: cagGTaagt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 29, 2022Variant summary: DMD c.4233+2C>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted by several computational tools to strengthen a canonical 5 donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00065 in 182827 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote and 43 hemizygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 59-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DMD causing Dystrophinopathies phenotype (1.1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.4233+2C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with dilated cardiomyopathy and vacuolar myopathy, without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Haas_2015, Bodian_2017, Mair_2020). In at least one of these reports the variant was also detected in an unaffected parent of the proband. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Dystrophinopathies. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Eleven ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign/likely benign and one ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites it as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Dilated cardiomyopathy 3B Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 28, 2017This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
