Genes affected

SGCB (HGNC:10806): (sarcoglycan beta) This gene encodes a member of the sarcoglycan family. Sarcoglycans are transmembrane components in the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex which help stabilize the muscle fiber membranes and link the muscle cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Mutations in this gene have been associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 56 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 4-52033587-TCTCTC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr4-52033587-TCTCTC-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 466608.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr4-52033587-TCTCTC-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The frameshift variant c.82_86del (p.Glu28LysfsTer5) in SGCB gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Glu28LysfsTer5 variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and 1000 Genomes. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glutamic Acid 28, changes this amino acid to Lysine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 5 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Glu28LysfsTer5. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu28Lysfs*5) in the SGCB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SGCB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15938573, 18285821). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SGCB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 466608). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
