Genes affected

SGCA (HGNC:10805): (sarcoglycan alpha) This gene encodes a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which is critical to the stability of muscle fiber membranes and to the linking of the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Its expression is thought to be restricted to striated muscle. Mutations in this gene result in type 2D autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

SGCA (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a topological_domain Extracellular (size 266) in uniprot entity SGCA_HUMAN there are 108 pathogenic changes around while only 2 benign (98%) in NM_000023.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000023.4.
• PP3: No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP

In summary, this variant is a novel in-frame deletion with uncertain impact on protein function. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may alter RNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a SGCA-related disease. This sequence change deletes 12 nucleotides from exon 6 of the SGCA mRNA (c.588_599delATACATTAAGGT). This leads to the deletion of 4 amino acid residues in the SGCA protein (p.Tyr197_Val200del) but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -
