Invitae | RCV000802568 | SCV000942405 | likely pathogenic | Duchenne muscular dystrophy | 2018-12-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant results in a copy number gain of the genomic region encompassing exons 18-26 of the DMD gene. While the exact position of this variant cannot be determined from this data, sub-genic copy number gains are generally in tandem (PMID: 25640679) and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with DMD-related conditions. Loss-of-function variants in DMD are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16770791, 25007885). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
