Genes affected
BAG3 (HGNC:939): (BAG cochaperone 3) BAG proteins compete with Hip for binding to the Hsc70/Hsp70 ATPase domain and promote substrate release. All the BAG proteins have an approximately 45-amino acid BAG domain near the C terminus but differ markedly in their N-terminal regions. The protein encoded by this gene contains a WW domain in the N-terminal region and a BAG domain in the C-terminal region. The BAG domains of BAG1, BAG2, and BAG3 interact specifically with the Hsc70 ATPase domain in vitro and in mammalian cells. All 3 proteins bind with high affinity to the ATPase domain of Hsc70 and inhibit its chaperone activity in a Hip-repressible manner. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 25, 2015The p.Arg276Trp variant in BAG3 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 2/16486 South Asian chromosomes in one homozygous individual by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (http://exac.br oadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do n ot provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, a dditional information is needed to fully assess the clinical significance of thi s variant. -
Myofibrillar myopathy 6;C3151293:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1HH Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 03, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 276 of the BAG3 protein (p.Arg276Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs759573189, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BAG3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228459). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on BAG3 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 02, 2023The p.R276W variant (also known as c.826C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the BAG3 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 826. The arginine at codon 276 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
