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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 15, 2022This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the SGCA gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SGCA protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs751466815, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281148). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The c.37+6T>C splice region variant has been in individual(s) with clinical features of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. This variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.0004%) in the gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). -
SGCA-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 05, 2024The SGCA c.37+6T>C variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant was reported in the homozygous state in two individuals with sarcoglycanopathy (Bardhan et al 2022. PubMed ID: 35416532). At PreventionGenetics, we have observed this variant with a second SGCA variant in a patient tested for metabolic myopathy (internal data). This variant is reported in 0.0033% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-48243444-T-C). Although we suspect this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
