Athena Diagnostics RCV000489478 SCV000255661 pathogenic not provided 2024-02-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant has been identified in multiple individuals with autosomal recessive Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and segregates with disease in multiple families. The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). This variant segregates with disease in multiple families. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 19226146, 22006685)

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000116542 SCV000645491 pathogenic Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A 2024-10-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 748 of the CAPN3 protein (p.Arg748Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780290, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 9150160, 9762961, 9777948, 10330340, 12461690, 15689361, 18563459, 18854869, 19015733, 22443334, 26404900, 27020652, 30028523). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128570). 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%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CAPN3 function (PMID: 19226146). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard RCV000116542 SCV001164496 pathogenic Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A 2018-12-03 criteria provided, single submitter research The homozygous p.Arg748Gln variant in CAPN3 was identified by our study in one individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) This variant has been identified in 0.01455% (5/34372) of Latino chromosomes and 0.004166% (1/24006) of African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs587780290). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. One study that examined a rat model with an analagous protein suggested that this variant affects protein catalytic activity (PMID: 19226146). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enought to determine pathogenicity. The p.Arg748Gln variant in CAPN3 has been reported in many individuals with LGMD in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in ClinVar and the literature (Variation ID: 128570). This variant segregated with disease in 2 affected relatives from 1 family (PMID: 9150160). There are many reports of individuals with LGMD and this variant (in either the homozygous or compound heterozygous state) in ClinVar and the literature. Animal models in rats have shown that this variant causes LGMD via a deleterious effect on calpain protein catalytic activity (PMID: 19226146). In summary, the p.Arg748Gln variant is pathogenic based off of our findings, multiple reports in ClinVar, and the literature. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PP3, PS3, PP1, PM3_Strong (Richards 2015).

It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals Fadaee et al., 2013; Richard et al., 1997. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CAPN3 function Garnham et al., 2009. This variant is present with allele frequency of 0.002% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic/ Pathogenic multiple submissions. Multiple lines of computational evidence Polyphen - Probably Damaging, SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing predict a damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid of p.Arg748Gln in CAPN3 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Arg at position 748 is changed to a Gln changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
