Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsJun 02, 2020The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity. Predicted to have a damaging effect on the protein. This variant is statistically more frequent in affected individuals than in the general population and/or healthy controls. In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. -

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A Pathogenic:4
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 27, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 417 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Thr417Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs200646556, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 16650086, 20517216, 25079074, 25135358). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281505). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CAPN3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CAPN3 function (PMID: 19226146). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardDec 03, 2018The heterozygous p.Thr417Met variant in CAPN3 was identified by our study in the compound heterozygous state, with a pathogenic variant, in one individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) Trio exome analysis showed this variant to be de novo. The p.Thr417Met variant in CAPN3 has been reported in 4 individuals (including 1 French, 1 European Canadian individual) with LGMD (PMID: 25135358, 25079074,16650086), and has been identified in 0.008324% (2/24026) of African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs200646556). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. Animal models in rats have shown that this variant impacts calcium binding for the protein and causes LGMD (PMID: 19226146). The presence of this variant in combination with 2 reported pathogenic variants, p.Thr184Argfs and p.Glu622Argfs, and in 2 individuals with LGMD increases the likelihood that the p.Thr417Met variant is pathogenic (Variation ID: 17621, 290296). This variant has also been reported pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 281505). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for LGMD in an autosomal recessive manner based on the predicted impact of the variant, functional evidence, and multiple occurrences with pathogenic CAPN3 variants in individuals with LGMD.

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 02, 2022Variant summary: CAPN3 c.1250C>T (p.Thr417Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Peptidase C2, calpain, catalytic domain (IPR001300) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251420 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CAPN3 causing Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (5.2e-05 vs 0.0032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1250C>T has been reported in the literature as biallelic genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (example, PMID: 15689361, 18258189, 25135358, 27447704, 34440373, 25079074, 16650086). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
