Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -15 ACMG points: 1P and 16B. PP3BP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_198576.4(AGRN):​c.4298+6_4298+88delCGGGGAGGGGACGGGGCCGGGGCAGCTCAGGTGGGCGGGGAGGGGACGGGCGGGGGAGGGGGGGCCGGGGCAGCTCAGGTGGG variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00742 in 141,150 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 8 homozygotes. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).

Genes affected
AGRN (HGNC:329): (agrin) This gene encodes one of several proteins that are critical in the development of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), as identified in mouse knock-out studies. The encoded protein contains several laminin G, Kazal type serine protease inhibitor, and epidermal growth factor domains. Additional post-translational modifications occur to add glycosaminoglycans and disulfide bonds. In one family with congenital myasthenic syndrome affecting limb-girdle muscles, a mutation in this gene was found. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
