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

Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jun 23, 2023	ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 477459). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with merosin-deficient muscular dystrophy (PMID: 2152033, 9674786). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the LAMA2 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 65. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jun 01, 2023	Variant summary: LAMA2 c.2T>C (p.Met1Thr) alters the initiation codon and is predicted to result either in absence of the protein or truncation of the encoded protein due to translation initiation at a downstream codon. Pathogenic variants are found upstream of the nearest alternative in-frame start codon (ClinVar). Four of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 153910 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Laminin Alpha 2-Related Dystrophy (Pegoraro_1998, Hayashi_2001, Oliveira_2018), and some were reported as compound heterozygous with other likely pathogenic variants in trans. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11369186, 30055037, 9674786). Four submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
