Genes affected

DAG1 (HGNC:2666): (dystroglycan 1) This gene encodes dystroglycan, a central component of dystrophin-glycoprotein complex that links the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton in the skeletal muscle. The encoded preproprotein undergoes O- and N-glycosylation, and proteolytic processing to generate alpha and beta subunits. Certain mutations in this gene are known to cause distinct forms of muscular dystrophy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, all encoding the same protein.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 7 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-49530950-CA-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-49530950-CA-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 539125.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln147Argfs*21) in the DAG1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 749 amino acid(s) of the DAG1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DAG1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 539125). This variant disrupts a region of the DAG1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Phe152Leufs*3) have been determined to be pathogenic (internal data). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
