Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000117.3(EMD):c.512C>A(p.Ser171*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S171S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy Pathogenic:1
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the EMD protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu217Profs*31) have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 290259). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (PMID: 10874323). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser171*) in the EMD gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 84 amino acid(s) of the EMD protein. -
