RCV000812068 | SCV000952370 | uncertain significance | Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2K; Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B1; Walker-Warburg congenital muscular dystrophy | 2018-12-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with tyrosine at codon 723 of the POMT1 protein (p.Asp723Tyr). The aspartic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and tyrosine. This variant is present in population databases (rs771877812, ExAC 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with POMT1-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. |
