Submissions by phenotype
not provided    Pathogenic:7 
Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Based on the understanding of this genetic alteration, it may be amenable to nonsense read-through therapy that is currently available or in clinical trial; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21396098, 33420945, 27708273, 23757202, 19206170, 21399986, 31862442, 32453103, 31127727, 30190612, 32194622, 19793655, 12632325) -

The variant creates a premature nonsense codon, and is therefore predicted to significantly disrupt the protein structure. Found in at least one symptomatic patient, and not found in general population data. -

Duchenne muscular dystrophy    Pathogenic:3 
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp3*) in the DMD gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DMD are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16770791, 25007885). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Becker muscular dystrophy (PMID: 12632325, 19793655, 21396098, 21399986). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 29962). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Neuromuscular disease caused by qualitative or quantitative defects of dystrophin    Pathogenic:1 
Variant summary: DMD c.9G>A (p.Trp3X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 178651 control chromosomes. c.9G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Dystrophinopathies, mainly as Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD) (example, Flanigan_2003, Flanigan_2009, Magri_2011, Reddy_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in initiation of translation at downstream AUG codons within exon 6 leading to residual dystrophin expression (Gurvich_2009). Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
