Genes affected
SGCA (HGNC:10805): (sarcoglycan alpha) This gene encodes a component of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC), which is critical to the stability of muscle fiber membranes and to the linking of the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Its expression is thought to be restricted to striated muscle. Mutations in this gene result in type 2D autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 20, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 181 of the SGCA protein (p.Arg181Ser). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SGCA-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 288595). 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 SGCA protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
