Genes affected
DMD (HGNC:2928): (dystrophin) This gene spans a genomic range of greater than 2 Mb and encodes a large protein containing an N-terminal actin-binding domain and multiple spectrin repeats. The encoded protein forms a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which bridges the inner cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. Deletions, duplications, and point mutations at this gene locus may cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), or cardiomyopathy. Alternative promoter usage and alternative splicing result in numerous distinct transcript variants and protein isoforms for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

p.Arg1728Cys in exon 37 of DMD: This variant is classified as benign because it has been identified in 0.9% (180/18042) of African chromosomes, including 48 hem izygotes and 1 homozygote, by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gn omad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs34102501). -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: DMD c.5182C>T (p.Arg1728Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the central rod domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00099 in 203656 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0097 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 880 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DMD causing Dystrophinopathies phenotype (1.1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Seven ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign (5x) and likely benign (2x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -
