Genes affected

FKRP (HGNC:17997): (fukutin related protein) This gene encodes a protein which is targeted to the medial Golgi apparatus and is necessary for posttranslational modification of dystroglycan. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital muscular dystrophy, cognitive disability, and cerebellar cysts. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 15 uncertain in NM_024301.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 46 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.8498 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -2.4986 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A5, congenital muscular dystrophy with intellectual disability, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy, type A, muscle-eye-brain disease, congenital muscular dystrophy with cerebellar involvement, myopathy caused by variation in FKRP, muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type B5, congenital muscular dystrophy without intellectual disability.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.08675593).

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.G219S variant (also known as c.655G>A), located in coding exon 1 of the FKRP gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 655. The glycine at codon 219 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
