Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard RCV003327663 SCV004034197 pathogenic Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B 2023-08-24 criteria provided, single submitter research A homozygous deletion of exons 4-9 in DYSF (NM_001130987.2) was identified by exome sequencing in two siblings with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy ([GRCh 38] chr2:71503117_71517137x0). These breakpoints have been estimated by exome sequencing only and therefore may not reflect the true breakpoints. Inheritance information is unavailable. The patient phenotypes are nonspecific, but are consistent with cases described in the literature and/or published databases with overlapping variants. This intragenic variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at exon 4 and leads to a premature termination codon. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of DYSF is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (https://search.clinicalgenome.org/kb/gene-dosage). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
