Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000536114 SCV000645484 uncertain significance Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A 2024-10-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 662 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Ala662Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs187054121, gnomAD 0.2%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 1691480, 16141003, 18854869). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468646). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CAPN3 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000536114 SCV001275946 uncertain significance Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A 2017-04-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV003488681 SCV004240886 uncertain significance not specified 2023-12-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: CAPN3 c.1984G>T (p.Ala662Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the penta-EF-hand (PEF) domain (IPR029531) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00023 in 1,607,152 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0019 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is not significantly higher than the estimated maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in CAPN3 causing Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive (0.0032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.1984G>T, has been reported in the literature in heterozygous state (i.e. without identifying a second variant) in individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (e.g. Piluso_2005, Fanin_2007, Nallamilli_2018); where muscle biopsy specimen from one of these patients demonstrated loss of calpain-3 autolytic activity (Fanin_2007). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16141003, 16971480, 30564623). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
