Invitae | RCV001032727 | SCV001196034 | pathogenic | Duchenne muscular dystrophy | 2019-11-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exons 1-6 of the DMD gene, which includes the initiator codon. The 5' end of this event is unknown as it extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. The 3' boundary is likely confined to intron 6 of the DMD gene. This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Similar copy number variants have been observed in individual(s) with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (PMID: 7747792). Loss-of-function variants in DMD are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16770791, 25007885). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
