Genes affected

COL6A2 (HGNC:2212): (collagen type VI alpha 2 chain) This gene encodes one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The product of this gene contains several domains similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in this gene are associated with Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy. Three transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.017320262 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 21-46117398-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-46117398-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 17163.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr21-46117398-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17163). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant COL6A2-related conditions (PMID: 17886299; Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 10 of the COL6A2 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 COL6A2 are known to be disease-causing for autosomal recessive COL6A2 conditions (PMID: 21280092, 20976770). However, certain variants affecting donor or acceptor splice sites in the triple helical domain of COL6A2 are expected to result in in-frame exon skipping and have been reported to cause autosomal dominant COL6A2-related conditions (PMID: 18366090). -
