Genes affected

CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 6.2, offset of 1, new splice context is: ctctttctgtgtgcttaaAGtcc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 15-42394255-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-42394255-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 556764.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr15-42394255-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 7 of the CAPN3 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CAPN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10330340, 15689361). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18854869). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 556764). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: research

The heterozygous c.1030-1G>A variant in CAPN3 was identified by our study in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic variant in one individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD). The presence of this variant in combination with a pathogenic variant and in an individual with LGMD and increases the likelihood that the p.Thr184ArgfsTer36 variant is pathogenic. The c.1030-1G>A variant in CAPN3 was reported in at least 1 individual in the literature (PMID: 18854869, 20635405), and was absent from large population studies. This variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1/2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to a frameshift and an abnormal or absent protein. Loss of function of the CAPN3 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive LGMD. RNA and protein analyses of a muscle biopsy from an individual compound heterozygous with this variant and a pathogenic variant provide some evidence that the c.1030-1G>A variant may impact splicing and eliminate translation (PMID: 20635405). This variant has also been reported likely pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 556764). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the c.1030-1G>A variant is likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS3, PM2, PVS1_moderate, PM3_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
