Genes affected

SGCE (HGNC:10808): (sarcoglycan epsilon) This gene encodes the epsilon member of the sarcoglycan family. Sarcoglycans are transmembrane proteins that are components of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex, which link the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Unlike other family members which are predominantly expressed in striated muscle, the epsilon sarcoglycan is more broadly expressed. Mutations in this gene are associated with myoclonus-dystonia syndrome. This gene is imprinted, with preferential expression from the paternal allele. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. Scorers claiming Uncertain: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Benign.

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); A different variant affecting the same nucleotide site (c.109+5G>C) has been reported as a paternally inherited variant in patients with myoclonus in the published literature (PMID:29801903, 23365103); In silico analysis indicates that this variant does not alter splicing; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
