Genes affected
SGCE (HGNC:10808): (sarcoglycan epsilon) This gene encodes the epsilon member of the sarcoglycan family. Sarcoglycans are transmembrane proteins that are components of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex, which link the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Unlike other family members which are predominantly expressed in striated muscle, the epsilon sarcoglycan is more broadly expressed. Mutations in this gene are associated with myoclonus-dystonia syndrome. This gene is imprinted, with preferential expression from the paternal allele. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

Myoclonic dystonia 11 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 22, 2023This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 94384). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with myoclonus-dystonia (PMID: 18205193). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg237*) in the SGCE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SGCE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12821748, 15389977, 17853490, 24297365). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billion-The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. The variant is predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000094384 / PMID: 18205193). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
