Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BP4_StrongBS2
The NM_003919.3(SGCE):c.1065-3T>C variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000559 in 1,611,316 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★).
SGCE (HGNC:10808): (sarcoglycan epsilon) This gene encodes the epsilon member of the sarcoglycan family. Sarcoglycans are transmembrane proteins that are components of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex, which link the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Unlike other family members which are predominantly expressed in striated muscle, the epsilon sarcoglycan is more broadly expressed. Mutations in this gene are associated with myoclonus-dystonia syndrome. This gene is imprinted, with preferential expression from the paternal allele. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. A pseudogene associated with this gene is located on chromosome 2. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
CASD1 (HGNC:16014): (CAS1 domain containing 1) Enables N-acetylneuraminate 7-O(or 9-O)-acetyltransferase activity. Involved in carbohydrate metabolic process. Is integral component of Golgi membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the SGCE gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SGCE protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SGCE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464151). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
