Athena Diagnostics RCV000255348 SCV000255730 pathogenic not provided 2020-07-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The variant creates a premature nonsense codon, and is therefore predicted to result in the loss of a functional protein. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene, and not found in general population data.
GeneDx RCV000255348 SCV000322284 pathogenic not provided 2023-05-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Nonsense variant predicted to result in nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Based on the understanding of this genetic alteration, it may be amenable to nonsense read-through therapy that is currently available or in clinical trial; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19783145, 21515508, 21972111, 28503591, 12233050, 20485447, 19937601, 25525159, 23453023, 18652600, 26110187, 28332368, 28318817, 31412794, 32559196, 34297739, 34925456)
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000201158 SCV000550291 pathogenic Duchenne muscular dystrophy 2024-05-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1577*) in the DMD gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DMD are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16770791, 25007885). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18652600, 19783145, 20485447, 21515508, 23453023). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217199). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001193218 SCV001361929 pathogenic Qualitative or quantitative defects of dystrophin 2019-10-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: DMD c.4729C>T (p.Arg1577X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 182057 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.4729C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Dystrophinopathies. Most of these individuals were affected with DMD (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy)(e.g. Esterhuizen_2014, Flanigan_2011, Takeshima_2010) .These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002336547 SCV002639250 pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2020-04-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R1577* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4729C>T), located in coding exon 34 of the DMD gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4729. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 34. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) (Takeshima Y et al. J. Hum. Genet., 2010 Jun;55:379-88; Sedlácková J et al. Neuromuscul. Disord., 2009 Nov;19:749-53; Yang J et al. BMC Med. Genet., 2013 Mar;14:29; Mah JK et al. Can J Neurol Sci, 2011 May;38:465-74; Suh MR et al. Yonsei Med. J., 2017 May;58:613-618; Vieitez I et al. Neurologia Mar;32:377-385; Kong X et al. BMC Med. Genet., 2019 08;20:139; Flanigan KM et al. Hum. Mutat., 2009 Dec;30:1657-66). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
