Invitae RCV000554503 SCV000630813 likely pathogenic Walker-Warburg congenital muscular dystrophy 2019-12-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 371 of the FKTN protein (p.Tyr371Cys). The tyrosine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between tyrosine and cysteine. This variant is present in population databases (rs119464998, ExAC 0.01%). This variant has been reported to segregate with congenital muscular dystrophy in a family (PMID: 19179078) and has been reported in several affected individuals (PMID: 11165248, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3215). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change leads to the mislocalization of the FKTN protein into the endoplasmic reticulum (PMID: 17034757, 22275357). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
