Genes affected

BAG3 (HGNC:939): (BAG cochaperone 3) BAG proteins compete with Hip for binding to the Hsc70/Hsp70 ATPase domain and promote substrate release. All the BAG proteins have an approximately 45-amino acid BAG domain near the C terminus but differ markedly in their N-terminal regions. The protein encoded by this gene contains a WW domain in the N-terminal region and a BAG domain in the C-terminal region. The BAG domains of BAG1, BAG2, and BAG3 interact specifically with the Hsc70 ATPase domain in vitro and in mammalian cells. All 3 proteins bind with high affinity to the ATPase domain of Hsc70 and inhibit its chaperone activity in a Hip-repressible manner. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 10-119669932-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr10-119669932-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 518933.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln88*) in the BAG3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BAG3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21353195, 25008357). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BAG3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 518933). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Q88* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.262C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the BAG3 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 262. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. This alteration has not been previously reported; however, loss of function alterations have been reported in numerous cases of familial dilated cardiomyopathy, including many families with strong segregation with disease (Norton N et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2011;88(3):273-82; Villard E et al. Eur Heart J. 2011;32(9):1065-76; Chami N et al. Can J Cardiol. 2014;30(12):1655-61; Feldman AM et al. J Cell Physiol. 2014;229(11):1697-702; Franaszczyk M et al. J Transl Med. 2014;12:192; van Spaendonck-Zwarts KY et al. Eur Heart J. 2014;35(32):2165-73). In addition, BAG3 knockdown in a zebrafish model showed heart failure with decreased fractional shortening and pericardial effusion (Norton N et al. Am J Hum Genet. 2011;88(3):273-82). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
