Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 26, 2023This variant is present in population databases (rs767739787, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 553 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Glu553Lys). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (PMID: 11731278, 15689361, 20044116, 21204801). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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 not expected to disrupt CAPN3 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553020). -
