Genes affected

COL6A3 (HGNC:2213): (collagen type VI alpha 3 chain) This gene encodes the alpha-3 chain, one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The alpha-3 chain of type VI collagen is much larger than the alpha-1 and -2 chains. This difference in size is largely due to an increase in the number of subdomains, similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains, that are found in the amino terminal globular domain of all the alpha chains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in the type VI collagen genes are associated with Bethlem myopathy, a rare autosomal dominant proximal myopathy with early childhood onset. Mutations in this gene are also a cause of Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy, also referred to as Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy, an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy that is more severe than Bethlem myopathy. Multiple transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only some of these variants has been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2009]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.0028319699 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-237359361-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-237359361-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 288503.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 18 of the COL6A3 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in COL6A3 are known to be disease-causing for autosomal recessive COL6A3 conditions (PMID: 21280092, 20976770). However, certain variants affecting donor or acceptor splice sites in the triple helical domain of COL6A3 are expected to result in in-frame exon skipping and have been reported to cause autosomal dominant COL6A3-related conditions (PMID: 18366090). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of type VI/skeletal muscle collagenopathy (PMID: 20976770, 34167565). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 288503). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 18, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 20976770). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
