RCV000778415 | SCV000914651 | uncertain significance | Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2N | 2018-10-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a stop-gained variant, which was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018) and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score for this variant, it could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change. No publications were found based on this search. Due to the potential impact of stop-gained variants and the lack of clarifying evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for this disease. |

RCV003768426 | SCV004592595 | pathogenic | Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with brain and eye anomalies), type A2; Muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital with intellectual disability), type B2; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2N | 2023-03-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 631718). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POMT2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp598*) in the POMT2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in POMT2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15894594). |
