Genes affected

FHL1 (HGNC:3702): (four and a half LIM domains 1) This gene encodes a member of the four-and-a-half-LIM-only protein family. Family members contain two highly conserved, tandemly arranged, zinc finger domains with four highly conserved cysteines binding a zinc atom in each zinc finger. Expression of these family members occurs in a cell- and tissue-specific mode and these proteins are involved in many cellular processes. Mutations in this gene have been found in patients with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy. Multiple alternately spliced transcript variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift 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 X-136208453-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-136208453-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 445279.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	-	The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. The variant is predicted to alter splicing and result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function. Multiple pathogenic loss-of-function variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported to be associated with FHL1 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000445279 / PMID: 26933038). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
