Description

In affected members of an Italian family with Bethlem myopathy (BTHLM1A; 158810) previously reported by Merlini et al. (1994), Vanegas et al. (2002) identified a heterozygous G-to-A transition at the +1 position of intron 3 of the COL6A1 gene. The mutation results in the activation of a cryptic splice donor site at the 3-prime end of exon 3, leading to an in-frame deletion of 22 amino acids from codon 122 to 143 within the NH2-globular domain. Fibroblast studies showed that the mutated mRNA was stable, but the mutated protein could not be detected, suggesting that it was highly unstable and rapidly degraded.

Description

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that this variant is associated with the activation of a cryptic splice site in exon 3 (PMID: 11932968). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Bethlem myopathy (PMID: 11932968, 28831785, 25535305). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17176). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 3 of the COL6A1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in the loss of 22 amino acid residue(s), but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame.
