Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_Strong

The NM_000117.3(EMD):​c.70G>A​(p.Gly24Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Uncertain significance in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G24V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
EMD (HGNC:3331): (emerin) Emerin is a serine-rich nuclear membrane protein and a member of the nuclear lamina-associated protein family. It mediates membrane anchorage to the cytoskeleton. Dreifuss-Emery muscular dystrophy is an X-linked inherited degenerative myopathy resulting from mutation in the emerin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The Gly24Arg variant in EMD has not been reported in individuals with cardiomyop athy. Data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of this variant. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, con servation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. Additional information is needed to fully asse ss the clinical significance of the Gly24Arg variant.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID #179103; Landrum et al., 2016); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (Stenson et al., 2014)

Collection Method:clinical testing

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179103). 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. 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 EMD protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with EMD-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 24 of the EMD protein (p.Gly24Arg).
