dbSNP rs786200898: DYSF:p.Ile314TrpfsTer2 (chr2-71516241-CG-C) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (17 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PP1PM3_StrongPVS1PP4_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_003494.4: c.855+1del variant in DYSF, which is also known as NM_001130987.2: c.951+1del, occurs within the canonical splice donor site of intron 8. It is predicted to cause skipping of biologically relevant exon 8/55, resulting in an in-frame deletion of 21 amino acids (PVS1_Moderate). RNAseq data has confirmed that this variant results in in aberrant splicing, suggesting use of an alternative acceptor site that deletes the first basepair of DYSF exon 9 and leads to a frameshift and premature truncation p.(Val286TrpfsTer2) (PMID:36983702). This variant has been detected in at least 12 individuals with limb girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID:20544924, 17828519, 18853459, 36983702). Of those individuals, at least two were compound heterozygous for the variant and a pathogenic variant (c.3504dup p.(Lys1169GlnfsTer6), 1.0 pt, PMID:20544924; c.3126G>A p.(Trp1024Ter): 1.0 pt, PMID:18853459), and at least one was homozygous (0.25 pts, PMID:18853459) (PM3_Strong). At least one patient with this variant displayed progressive limb-girdle muscle weakness and absent dysferlin protein expression, which is highly specific for DYSF-associated LGMD (PP4_Strong, PMID:18853459, 36983702). The variant was also reported to co-segregate with the disease in two affected family members from two families (PMID:18853459) (PP1, capped with PP4_Strong). The filtering allele frequency of the variant is 0.0009441 for Admixed American genome alleles in gnomAD v3.1.2 (the upper threshold of the 95% CI of 8/15286), which is greater than the LGMD VCEP threshold (<0.0001) for PM2_Supporting (criterion not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as 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): PVS1_Moderate, PM3_Strong, PP4_Strong, PP1.

Genes affected

DYSF (HGNC:3097): (dysferlin) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ferlin family and is a skeletal muscle protein found associated with the sarcolemma. It is involved in muscle contraction and contains C2 domains that play a role in calcium-mediated membrane fusion events, suggesting that it may be involved in membrane regeneration and repair. In addition, the protein encoded by this gene binds caveolin-3, a skeletal muscle membrane protein which is important in the formation of caveolae. Specific mutations in this gene have been shown to cause autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) as well as Miyoshi myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]
