Genes affected
ITGA7 (HGNC:6143): (integrin subunit alpha 7) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. They mediate a wide spectrum of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, and thus play a role in cell migration, morphologic development, differentiation, and metastasis. This protein functions as a receptor for the basement membrane protein laminin-1. It is mainly expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles and may be involved in differentiation and migration processes during myogenesis. Defects in this gene are associated with congenital myopathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.035149384 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.3, offset of 1, new splice context is: ctcaccccaccccccacaAGgtt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PP5

Congenital muscular dystrophy due to integrin alpha-7 deficiency Pathogenic:1
Feb 14, 2019
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in ITGA7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9590299). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the ITGA7 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs777049999, ExAC 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with ITGA7-related disease. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The ITGA7 c.671-1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. However, there is possibly an alternative AG acceptor site created and we cannot be certain of the biological impact of this variant. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.036% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD, including one homozygous individual. Although we suspect that this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
