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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 20 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7, offset of 1, new splice context is: cctctcccttcctcctcaAGaca. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 17, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 17 of the CAPN3 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 CAPN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10330340, 15689361). This variant is present in population databases (rs369552114, gnomAD 0.003%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18055493; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 282494). 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. -
