Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000280277 SCV000391015 likely pathogenic Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A 2017-04-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The CAPN3 c.1435A>G (p.Ser479Gly) variant has been reported in five studies and is found in at least nine patients including four compound heterozygotes and four heterozygotes with calpainopathy, and one compound heterozygote with distal myopathy (Richard et al. 1999; Pogue et al. 2001; Groen et al. 2007; Blazquez et al. 2008; Izumi et al. 2015). Reduced and/or absent calpain-3 expression was demonstrated in muscle biopsies in several of these patients. The p.Ser479Gly variant was absent from at least 100 control chromosomes (Richard et al. 1999), and is reported at a frequency of 0.00008 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. The variant is located in a well-conserved residue that was described as the start of a cluster of variants that can affect the interaction and assembly of calpain-3 protein domains (Jia et al. 2001). Based on the evidence, the p.Ser479Gly variant is classified as likely pathogenic for calpainopathy. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000280277 SCV000645472 pathogenic Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A 2024-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 479 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Ser479Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs201736037, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 10330340, 15689361, 18055493, 18563459, 20694146). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 92405). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CAPN3 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
GeneDx RCV000790779 SCV001753591 likely pathogenic not provided 2024-06-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 18055493, 27055500, 11166169, 20694146, 27066573, 11297944, 30564623, 34426522, 31589614, 34298987, 18563459, 15689361, 10330340, 32896923)
Athena Diagnostics RCV000790779 SCV001879795 pathogenic not provided 2021-04-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with clinical features associated with this gene. In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic. Computational tools predict that this variant is damaging.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002271401 SCV002555832 pathogenic Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2022-06-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: CAPN3 c.1435A>G (p.Ser479Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Peptidase C2, calpain, large subunit, domain III (IPR022682) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 251424 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CAPN3 causing Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (5.6e-05 vs 0.0032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1435A>G has been reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous genotypes in individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive, specifically Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) (example, Richard_1999, Saenz_2005, Groen_2007, Blazquez_2008, de Morree_2010, Izumi_2015, Toral-Ojeda_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

This variant has been widely reported in individuals with autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy (see for example, Richard et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10330340; González-Mera et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32896923; Groen et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 18055493). This variant is reported in 0.010% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
