Genes affected
SELENON (HGNC:15999): (selenoprotein N) This gene encodes a glycoprotein that is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. It plays an important role in cell protection against oxidative stress, and in the regulation of redox-related calcium homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with early onset muscle disorders, referred to as SEPN1-related myopathy. SEPN1-related myopathy consists of 4 autosomal recessive disorders, originally thought to be separate entities: rigid spine muscular dystrophy (RSMD1), the classical form of multiminicore disease, desmin related myopathy with Mallory-body like inclusions, and congenital fiber-type disproportion (CFTD). This protein is a selenoprotein, containing the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). Sec is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, designated the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon, rather than as a stop signal. A second stop-codon redefinition element (SRE) adjacent to the UGA codon has been identified in this gene (PMID:15791204). SRE is a phylogenetically conserved stem-loop structure that stimulates readthrough at the UGA codon, and augments the Sec insertion efficiency by SECIS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]

Submissions by phenotype

Congenital myopathy 4A, autosomal dominant Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The inframe insertion variant c.827_829dup (p.Ala276_Cys277insSer) has been submitted to ClinVar as Likely Pathogenic. It has been reported previously using alternate nomenclature (c.829_829insTCC) in the homozygous state in an individual with significant neck extensor and flexor weakness, mild axial and limb girdle weakness, and developmental delay (Ardissone et al., 2016). This p.Ala276_Cys277insSer variant has allele frequency of 0.0008% in the gnomAD and novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 genome database . The insertion of amino acid Ser between amino acids Ala at position 276 and Cys at position 277 changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. In the absence of another reportable variant , the molecular diagnosis is not confirmed. -

Eichsfeld type congenital muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 24, 2023The p.Ala276_Cys277insSer variant in SELENON has been reported in 2 individuals with SELENON-RM (PMID: 30932294, 26780752) and has been identified in 0.007% (2/30600) of South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs1329981323). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 212149) and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic by GeneDx and Genetic Services Laboratory (University of Chicago). Of the 2 affected individuals, both were homozygotes, which increases the likelihood that the p.Ala276_Cys277insSer variant is pathogenic (PMID: 30932294, 26780752). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Ala276_Cys277insSer variant may impact protein function (PMID: 30932294). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. This variant is an insertion of 1 amino acid at position 276 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. This insertion is expected to impact the protein. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive SELENON-RM. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3, PS3_moderate, PM2_supporting, PM4_supporting (Richards 2015). -
