Invitae RCV001226167 SCV001398468 pathogenic Duchenne muscular dystrophy 2023-03-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 22 of the DMD gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 22 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 11241855). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 953819). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (PMID: 11241855, 19760747, 27593222). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency).
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002222680 SCV002500329 likely pathogenic Qualitative or quantitative defects of dystrophin 2022-03-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: DMD c.2949+2T>C is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. One computational tool predicts the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site and three predict the variant has no significant impact on splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 183060 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2949+2T>C in individuals affected with Dystrophinopathies and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: both have classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
