Genes affected
MUSK (HGNC:7525): (muscle associated receptor tyrosine kinase) This gene encodes a muscle-specific tyrosine kinase receptor. The encoded protein may play a role in clustering of the acetylcholine receptor in the postsynaptic neuromuscular junction. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital myasthenic syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 29, 2023The c.2002C>T (p.R668C) alteration is located in exon 15 (coding exon 15) of the MUSK gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2002, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 668 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Fetal akinesia deformation sequence 1;C4225368:Congenital myasthenic syndrome 9 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 25, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 668 of the MUSK protein (p.Arg668Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs754730206, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MUSK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 476139). 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 MUSK protein function. 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. -
