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.

LAMA2-related muscular dystrophy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 24, 2021This sequence change replaces tyrosine with phenylalanine at codon 163 of the LAMA2 protein (p.Tyr163Phe). The tyrosine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between tyrosine and phenylalanine. This variant is present in population databases (rs201175472, ExAC 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with LAMA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 447686). 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 not expected to disrupt LAMA2 protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
