RCV000630657 | SCV000751622 | pathogenic | Duchenne muscular dystrophy | 2021-09-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 46-54 of the DMD gene. This variant would be expected to be in-frame, preserving the integrity of the reading frame. A similar copy number variant has been observed in individuals with Becker muscular dystrophy (PMID: 14652441). The region of the DMD gene that includes exon(s) 48-53 has been determined to be clinically significant (PMID: 17854090, 18663755, 19907931). Therefore, deletions that encompass that region are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
