Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PP4_StrongPM3PP3PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000231.3: c.158T>C variant in SGCG is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of leucine by proline at amino acid 53 (p.Leu53Pro). This variant has been detected in at least three individuals with autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID:30564623, 18996010), including in a homozygous state in two patients (1.0 pt, PMID:18996010) (PM3). At least one patient with this variant displayed progressive limb girdle muscle weakness and reduced expression of gamma sarcoglycan protein in skeletal muscle, which is highly specific for SGCG-related LGMD (PP4_Strong; PMID:18996010). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.000008 (1/113696 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population, which is lower than the ClinGen LGMD VCEP threshold (≤0.00009) for PM2_Supporting, meeting this criterion (PM2_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.98, which exceeds the threshold of ≥0.70, evidence that correlates with impact to SGCG function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Pathogenic for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/08/2025): PP4_Strong, PM3, PM2_supporting, PP3.

Genes affected

SGCG (HGNC:10809): (sarcoglycan gamma) This gene encodes gamma-sarcoglycan, one of several sarcolemmal transmembrane glycoproteins that interact with dystrophin. The dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) spans the sarcolemma and is comprised of dystrophin, syntrophin, alpha- and beta-dystroglycans and sarcoglycans. The DGC provides a structural link between the subsarcolemmal cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix of muscle cells. Defects in the encoded protein can lead to early onset autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy, in particular limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, type 2C (LGMD2C). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. 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 expected to disrupt SGCG protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 289650). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18996010). This variant is present in population databases (rs781760379, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 53 of the SGCG protein (p.Leu53Pro). -
