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 testingGeneDxAug 07, 2019Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 410228; Landrum et al., 2016); In-frame deletion of one glycine residue and in silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31983221) -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 08, 2024This variant, c.1232_1234del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the BAG3 protein (p.Gly411del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs761727804, gnomAD 0.06%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of BAG3-related conditions (PMID: 31983221, 32746448). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410228). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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 GeneticsSep 10, 2021The c.1232_1234delGAG variant (also known as p.G411del) is located in coding exon 4 of the BAG3 gene. This variant results from an in-frame GAG deletion at nucleotide positions 1232 to 1234. This results in the in-frame deletion of a glycine residue at codon 411. This variant has been detected in a dilated cardiomyopathy cohort and a healthy control cohort (Mazzarotto F et al. Circulation. 2020 02;141(5):387-398). This variant co-occurred with another variant in a cardiac-related gene in an individual with noncompaction cardiomyopathy (van Lint FHM et al. Neth Heart J. 2019 Jun;27(6):304-309). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
