Invitae RCV001377481 SCV001574822 likely pathogenic Desmin-related myofibrillar myopathy 2020-06-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. This variant disrupts the initiator methionine in DES. If translation initiates from the next-in-frame methionine, the DES protein would no longer include the region containing p.Ser12 amino acid residue. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 20696008, Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with DES-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the DES mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 263.
