Variant summary

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

The NM_001130987.2(DYSF):c.3498T>A(p.Tyr1166Ter) variant causes a stop gained, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000161 in 1,613,934 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Y1166Y) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected
DYSF (HGNC:3097): (dysferlin) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ferlin family and is a skeletal muscle protein found associated with the sarcolemma. It is involved in muscle contraction and contains C2 domains that play a role in calcium-mediated membrane fusion events, suggesting that it may be involved in membrane regeneration and repair. In addition, the protein encoded by this gene binds caveolin-3, a skeletal muscle membrane protein which is important in the formation of caveolae. Specific mutations in this gene have been shown to cause autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) as well as Miyoshi myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

Qualitative or quantitative defects of dysferlin Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardMay 02, 2023The heterozygous p.Tyr1166Ter variant in DYSF was identified by our study, in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic variant (ClinVar Variation ID: 6684), in one individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. This individual also carried a pathogenic variant (ClinVar Variation ID: 6684), however the phase of these variants are unknown at this time. The p.Tyr1166Ter variant in DYSF has not been previously reported in individuals with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2 but has been identified in 0.005% (2/41402) of African/African American chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs758944159). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 283206) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by Eurofins NTD LLC and as likely pathogenic by Illumina Laboratory Services. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1166, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the DYSF gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PM3_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017The DYSF c.3444T>A (p.Tyr1148Ter) stop-gained variant has not been reported in the literature; however variants that are predicted to have the same functional consequence as the c.3444T>A (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant have been associated with DYSF-related disorders including limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) and Miyoshi myopathy (MM). Three studies have been published in which the p.Tyr1148Ter variant is found in a total of five individuals including two in a homozygous state and three in a compound heterozygous state (Kawabe et al. 2004; Klinge et al. 2010; Dominov et al. 2014). Kawabe et al. (2004) identified two related individuals, one with LGMD and one with MM who were homozygous for a DYSF c.3817-8TG>AA (p. Tyr1148Ter) variant. Klinge et al. (2010) identified an individual with MM who was compound heterozygous for a DYSF c.3444_3445delinsAA (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant and a second missense variant. Dominov et al. (2014) observed a DYSF c.3444_3445delTGinsAA (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant in two siblings with MM who were compound heterozygous for the variant and a second insertion variant. The c.3817-8TG>AA (p. Tyr1148Ter) variant was absent from 120 ethnically matched controls (Kawabe et al. 2004). Control data are unavailable for the c.3444T>A (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant and the c.3444_3445delinsAA (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant. The c.3444T>A (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant is not found in the 1000 Genomes Project, the Exome Sequencing Project, or the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Due to the potential impact of stop-gained variants and the evidence, the c.3444T>A (p.Tyr1148Ter) variant is classified as likely pathogenic for dysferlinopathy. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
