Genes affected

POMT2 (HGNC:19743): (protein O-mannosyltransferase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is an O-mannosyltransferase that requires interaction with the product of the POMT1 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).[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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 194966). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of POMT2-related conditions (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs794727228, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 653 of the POMT2 protein (p.Pro653Leu). -

Variant summary: POMT2 c.1958C>T (p.Pro653Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Protein O-mannosyl-transferase, C-terminal four TM domain (IPR032421) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251282 control chromosomes. c.1958C>T has been observed in the homozygous and presumed compound heterozygous state in at least 3 individual(s) affected with autosomal recessive Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (Labcorp Genetics (formerlyInvitae)), including at least 1 family where it segregated with disease. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 194966). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Predicted Consequence/Location: The majority of the known disease-causing variants of this gene are variants expected to result in premature termination of the protein. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.94 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.86 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with POMT2 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000194966). However, the evidence of pathogenicity is insufficient at this time. Therefore, this variant is classified as VUS according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
