Genes affected
LAMA2 (HGNC:6482): (laminin subunit alpha 2) Laminin, an extracellular protein, is a major component of the basement membrane. It is thought to mediate the attachment, migration, and organization of cells into tissues during embryonic development by interacting with other extracellular matrix components. It is composed of three subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, which are bound to each other by disulfide bonds into a cross-shaped molecule. This gene encodes the alpha 2 chain, which constitutes one of the subunits of laminin 2 (merosin) and laminin 4 (s-merosin). Mutations in this gene have been identified as the cause of congenital merosin-deficient muscular dystrophy. Two transcript variants encoding different proteins have been found for this gene.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.018251682 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.3, offset of 20, new splice context is: tagGTgtgt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

Observed with a nonsense variant in unknown phase in a patient with congenital muscular dystrophy and absent merosin staining through immunohistochemistry (Geranmayeh et al., 2010); Muscle pathology from mice homozygous for the c.283+1 G>A variant showed altered morphology and structure (Xu et al., 1994); Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in an in-frame loss of the adjacent exon in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Deletions involving coding exons of this gene are a known mechanism of disease (HGMD); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 7874173, 18700894, 20207543, 34103343, 24077912) -

LAMA2-related muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1
Dec 30, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the LAMA2 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 LAMA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18700894, 32904964). This variant is present in population databases (rs200288072, gnomAD 0.008%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with muscular dystrophy (PMID: 20207543). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 381584). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
