Genes affected
POMGNT1 (HGNC:19139): (protein O-linked mannose N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1 (beta 1,2-)) This gene encodes a type II transmembrane protein that resides in the Golgi apparatus. It participates in O-mannosyl glycosylation and is specific for alpha linked terminal mannose. Mutations in this gene may be associated with muscle-eye-brain disease and several congenital muscular dystrophies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
TSPAN1 (HGNC:20657): (tetraspanin 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1

Variant summary: POMGNT1 c.636C>T alters a conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 1/4 computational tools predicted weakening of the canonical 5' splice donor site. Multiple reports have demonstrated that this silent variant leads to exon 7 skipping, when analyzed at the RNA level (examples: Cummings_2017 and Oliveira_2008). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 251122 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in POMGNT1 causing Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (4e-05 vs 0.00072), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.636C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with muscular dystrophy and lissencephaly (examples: Bouchet_2007, Cummings_2017 and Oliveira_2008). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy Pathogenic:1
Jan 24, 2023
Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:curation

The c.636C>T (p.Phe212=) variant in POMGNT1 has been reported in six individuals with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (PMID 23326386, PMID 28424332, PMID 22323514, PMID 17559086, PMID 18330676) and has been identified in 0.01004% (2/19924) East Asian chromosomes in gnomAD (dbSNP ID rs190057175). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID #265399) as pathogenic by GeneDx, Invitae, Counsyl, CeGaT Center for Human Genetics Tuebingen, Natera, Inc, and Perkin-Elmer Genomics. Of these six affected individuals, one was a homozygote (PMID: 18330676) and two were compound heterozygotes, one confirmed compound heterozygote who carried a pathogenic variant in confirmed trans (PMID: 28424332) and one compound heterozygote who carried a likely pathogenic variant in trans (PMID: 22323514), which increases the likelihood that the c.636C>T (p.Phe212=) variant is pathogenic. The variant was shown by RT-PCR analysis (PMID: 18330676, PMID: 17559086) and muscle RNAseq of patient tissue (PMID: 28424332) to alter splicing and lead to exon skipping of exon 7, frameshift, and premature truncation. Loss of function of the POMGNT1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive POMGNT1-associated muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for POMGNT1-associated muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_Strong, PM2_supporting, PS3_Strong (Richards 2015). -

This sequence change affects codon 212 of the POMGNT1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the POMGNT1 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs190057175, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (PMID: 17559086, 18330676, 22323514, 23326386, 28424332). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 265399). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 7, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 17559086, 18330676). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
