Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | Nov 08, 2021 | NM_017739.3(POMGNT1):c.385C>T(R129W) is a missense variant classified as likely pathogenic in the context of POMGNT-related disorders. R129W has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 28688748, 30961548, Kritioti_2019_(no PMID; abstract)). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. R129W has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: NFE <0.001%). In summary, NM_017739.3(POMGNT1):c.385C>T(R129W) is a missense variant that has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. - |

Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | curation | Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard | Jan 24, 2023 | The p.Arg129Trp variant in POMGNT1 has been reported in at least five individuals with POMGNT1-associated muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (PMID: 28688748, PMID: 30961548, PMID: 34324503, ClinVar SCV002029242.2), and has been identified in 0.002% (2/113568) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs375431575). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID #558512) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by Invitae and CeGaT Center for Human Genetics Tuebingen, as likely pathogenic by Molecular Genetics (Royal Melbourne Hospital), Cytogenetics and Genomics Lab (Cyprus Institute Of Neurology and Genetics), and Myriad Women's Health, Inc., and as of uncertain significance by Counsyl, Illumina, and Natera, Inc. Of the five affected individuals, two were compound heterozygotes who carried a reported pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in trans, which increases the likelihood that the p.Arg129Trp variant is pathogenic (PMID: 30961548, PMID: 34324503; ClinvarID: 56582, 984973). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for POMGNT1-associated muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy.

Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B3;C3150417:Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2O Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Dec 06, 2023 | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 129 of the POMGNT1 protein (p.Arg129Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs375431575, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy or congenital muscular dystrophy (PMID: 28688748, 30961548, 34324503; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558512). 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 expected to disrupt POMGNT1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B3 Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Molecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne Hospital | Dec 02, 2021 | This sequence change in POMGNT1 is predicted to replace arginine with tryptophan at codon 129, p.(Arg129Trp). The arginine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is a critical carbohydrate binding residue in the interleukin-like EMT inducer (ILEI) domain (PMID: 27493216). There is a large physicochemical difference between arginine and tryptophan. The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1 is 0.002% (2/113,568 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population, which is consistent with a recessive condition. This variant has been detected in at least four individuals with muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy. Of those individuals, three were compound heterozygous for the variant and a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant and two of those were confirmed in trans by parental testing (PMID: 28688748, 30961548, 34324503). Further, the variant has been reported to segregate with disease in a single family (PMID: 34324503). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (5/6 algorithms). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG Guidelines v1.4.0, this variant is classified as LIKELY PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PM3_Strong, PM1, PM2_Supporting, PP1, PP3. - |
