Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -20 ACMG points: 0P and 20B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2
The NM_000117.3(EMD):c.445G>C(p.Asp149His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000177 in 1,210,652 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. There are 69 hemizygotes in GnomAD. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★).

ClinVar
Submissions by phenotype
not specified Benign:4
This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
Variant summary: EMD c.445G>C (p.Asp149His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00044 in 205102 control chromosomes (gnomAD), predominantly at a frequency of 0.0058 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 31 hemizygotes. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 6 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in EMD causing Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy phenotype (0.001), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. Six ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: one classified the variant as likely benign and five as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
