Genes affected
CAPN3 (HGNC:1480): (calpain 3) Calpain, a heterodimer consisting of a large and a small subunit, is a major intracellular protease, although its function has not been well established. This gene encodes a muscle-specific member of the calpain large subunit family that specifically binds to titin. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies type 2A. Alternate promoters and alternative splicing result in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms and some variants are ubiquitously expressed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A Pathogenic:1Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 30, 2020This variant has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 7720071, 17236769, 16650086, 8624690). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21036). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 6 of the CAPN3 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. Experimental studies have shown that this variant disrupts mRNA splicing (PMID: 7720071). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CAPN3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10330340, 15689361). -
