Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000070.3(CAPN3):​c.402del​(p.Ile135LeufsTer4) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A134A) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 15-42386187-GC-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-42386187-GC-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 286591.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr15-42386187-GC-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCounsylOct 28, 2016- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 11, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 286591). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 9150160, 21204801). This variant is present in population databases (rs746935735, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile135Leufs*4) in the CAPN3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CAPN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10330340, 15689361). -
