Genes affected
LAMB2 (HGNC:6487): (laminin subunit beta 2) Laminins, a family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins, are the major noncollagenous constituent of basement membranes. They have been implicated in a wide variety of biological processes including cell adhesion, differentiation, migration, signaling, neurite outgrowth and metastasis. Laminins, composed of 3 non identical chains: laminin alpha, beta and gamma (formerly A, B1, and B2, respectively), form a cruciform structure consisting of 3 short arms, each formed by a different chain, and a long arm composed of all 3 chains. Each laminin chain is a multidomain protein encoded by a distinct gene. Several isoforms of each chain have been described. Different alpha, beta and gamma chain isomers combine to give rise to different heterotrimeric laminin isoforms which are designated by Arabic numerals in the order of their discovery, i.e. alpha1beta1gamma1 heterotrimer is laminin 1. The biological functions of the different chains and trimer molecules are largely unknown, but some of the chains have been shown to differ with respect to their tissue distribution, presumably reflecting diverse functions in vivo. This gene encodes the beta chain isoform laminin, beta 2. The beta 2 chain contains the 7 structural domains typical of beta chains of laminin, including the short alpha region. However, unlike beta 1 chain, beta 2 has a more restricted tissue distribution. It is enriched in the basement membrane of muscles at the neuromuscular junctions, kidney glomerulus and vascular smooth muscle. Transgenic mice in which the beta 2 chain gene was inactivated by homologous recombination, showed defects in the maturation of neuromuscular junctions and impairment of glomerular filtration. Alternative splicing involving a non consensus 5' splice site (gc) in the 5' UTR of this gene has been reported. It was suggested that inefficient splicing of this first intron, which does not change the protein sequence, results in a greater abundance of the unspliced form of the transcript than the spliced form. The full-length nature of the spliced transcript is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -14 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.89).
BP6
Variant 3-49121895-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr3-49121895-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 1218980.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr3-49121895-C-T is described in Lovd as [Benign].
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00782 (1192/152346) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.0227 (944/41572). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0215. There are 18 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 553 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. This position pass quality control queck.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd at 18 AR gene
