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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 07, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly441Valfs*22) in the CAPN3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CAPN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10330340, 15689361). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281062). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 15733273). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). -

This sequence change has been observed in affected individual(s) and ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (PMID: 26501342; PMID: 25135358; PMID: 17702496; PMID: 17236769) - PS4. This variant is not present in population databases (rs1555421871- gnomAD; ABraOM no frequency - http://abraom.ib.usp.br/) - PM2. The p.(Gly441Valfs*22) was detected in trans with a pathogenic variant (PMID: 26501342; PMID: 25135358) - PM3. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic. -
