Genes affected

FKTN (HGNC:3622): (fukutin) The protein encoded by this gene is a putative transmembrane protein that is localized to the cis-Golgi compartment, where it may be involved in the glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle. The encoded protein is thought to be a glycosyltransferase and could play a role in brain development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2M (LGMD2M), and dilated cardiomyopathy type 1X (CMD1X). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the FKTN gene (p.Pro440Leufs*28). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 22 amino acid(s) of the FKTN protein and extend the protein by 5 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with left ventricular noncompaction (PMID: 28798025). This variant is also known as 9:108397472 G>GCT. This variant results in an extension of the FKTN protein. Other variant(s) that result in a similarly extended protein product (p.Asp455Metfs*12) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17044012). This suggests that these extensions are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
