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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000070.3
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.14366186).

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	Jul 30, 2024	The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v4.0.0 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). In silico tool predictions suggest no damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.40 (<0.4); 3Cnet: 0.14 (<0.15)]. The same nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with CAPN3- related disorder (PMID: 35169782 / 3billion dataset). The variant is in cis with likely pathogenic NM_000070.3:c.608C>T (NP_000061.1:p.Ala203Val). Therefore, this variant is classified as uncertain significance according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Feb 10, 2022	This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 250 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Lys250Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs779939785, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CAPN3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 289752). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
