Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PS1PM1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_058246.4(DNAJB6):c.279C>A(p.Phe93Leu) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,356 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Pathogenic in Lovd. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. F93F) has been classified as Likely benign.

Autosomal dominant limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 1D (DNAJB6) Pathogenic:2
This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 93 of the DNAJB6 protein (p.Phe93Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 22334415, 26205529, 26847086, 28794355, 30564623). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31530). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt DNAJB6 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The F93L pathogenic variant in the DNAJB6 gene has been previously reported in association with LGMD1D (Sarparanta et al., 2012). Functional studies indicate that F93L increases the half-life of DNAJB6, which results in the toxic aggregation of DNAJB6 protein and its binding partners (Sarparanta et al., 2012). Additional functional studies in animal models showed F93L resulted in muscle weakness compared to controls (Nam et al., 2015; Bengoechea et al., 2015). F93L is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The F93L variant is a conservative amino acid substitution; however, this substitution occurs at a position that is conserved, and a different nucleotide substitution (c.279 C>G) resulting in the same missense change, as well as missense variants in nearby residues (F89I; F91I/L; P96R) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with myopathy (Stenson et al., 2014). In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, F93L is interpreted to be a pathogenic variant. -
