Genes affected
LAMA4 (HGNC:6484): (laminin subunit alpha 4) Laminins, a family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins, are the major noncollagenous constituent of basement membranes. They have been implicated in a wide variety of biological processes including cell adhesion, differentiation, migration, signaling, neurite outgrowth and metastasis. Laminins are composed of 3 non identical chains: laminin alpha, beta and gamma (formerly A, B1, and B2, respectively) and they form a cruciform structure consisting of 3 short arms, each formed by a different chain, and a long arm composed of all 3 chains. Each laminin chain is a multidomain protein encoded by a distinct gene. Several isoforms of each chain have been described. Different alpha, beta and gamma chain isomers combine to give rise to different heterotrimeric laminin isoforms which are designated by Arabic numerals in the order of their discovery, i.e. alpha1beta1gamma1 heterotrimer is laminin 1. The biological functions of the different chains and trimer molecules are largely unknown, but some of the chains have been shown to differ with respect to their tissue distribution, presumably reflecting diverse functions in vivo. This gene encodes the alpha chain isoform laminin, alpha 4. The domain structure of alpha 4 is similar to that of alpha 3, both of which resemble truncated versions of alpha 1 and alpha 2, in that approximately 1,200 residues at the N-terminus (domains IV, V and VI) have been lost. Laminin, alpha 4 contains the C-terminal G domain which distinguishes all alpha chains from the beta and gamma chains. The RNA analysis from adult and fetal tissues revealed developmental regulation of expression, however, the exact function of laminin, alpha 4 is not known. Tissue-specific utilization of alternative polyA-signal has been described in literature. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 06, 2023In 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. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant  is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 44346). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LAMA4-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs151119304, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 457 of the LAMA4 protein (p.His457Asp). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 13, 2013Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The His457Asp varia nt in LAMA4 has not been reported in the literature, but has been identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with HCM, who also carried another variant likely to be disease-causing (LMM unpublished data). This variant is listed in dbSNP w ithout frequency information (dbSNP rs151119304) and has not been identified in large and broad European American and African American populations by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS), though it may be co mmon in other populations. Histidine (His) at position 457 is not well conserved in evolution, including in mammals, which suggests that a change at this positi on may be tolerated. Other computational analyses (biochemical amino acid proper ties, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) also suggest that the variant may not impa ct the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pat hogenicity. In summary, the available data suggests that this variant is more li kely benign, but additional studies are needed to fully assess the clinical sign ificance of the His457Asp variant. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 06, 2024This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
