Genes affected
POMT1 (HGNC:9202): (protein O-mannosyltransferase 1) The protein encoded by this gene is an O-mannosyltransferase that requires interaction with the product of the POMT2 gene for enzymatic function. The encoded protein is found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. Defects in this gene are a cause of Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2K (LGMD2K). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Variant summary: POMT1 c.1864C>T (p.Arg622X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251436 control chromosomes. c.1864C>T has been reported in the literature in at least one compound heterozygous individual affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (e.g. Bello_2012). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22549409). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 194859). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg622*) in the POMT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in POMT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12369018, 15637732, 16575835). This variant is present in population databases (rs794727208, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with muscular dystrophy (PMID: 22522420, 22549409). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 194859). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
