The ClinGen Evidence Repository is an FDA-recognized human genetic variant database containing expert-curated assertions regarding variants' pathogenicity and supporting evidence summaries. [Disclaimer]
  • Gene label mismatch: ACTA1 vs undefined
  • Gene obtained from curated document aligns with the Allele Registry but not with ClinVar data
  • No CSPEC computed assertion could be determined for this classification!

Evidence submitted by expert panel
Congenital Myopathies VCEP
The NM_001100.4:c.175G>A variant in ACTA1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of glutamate by lysine at amino acid 59 (p.Glu59Lys). The variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1.0 meeting PM2_Supporting. The REVEL computational prediction analysis tool gives a score of 0.855, which is above the threshold necessary to apply PP3. ACTA1, in which the variant was identified, is defined by the ClinGen Congenital Myopathies VCEP as a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where pathogenic missense variants are a common mechanism of disease. The Z-score in gnomAD v4.1 is 4.53 (PP2). This variant has been reported in at least three probands, of which one was a de novo occurrence with unconfirmed parental relationships (PS4_Supporting, PM6; GeneDx, Harry Perkins Institute Of Medical Research, LabCorp internal data, ClinVar: SCV004040176.2, SCV004041839.1). In summary, the variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant alpha-actinopathy. ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Congenital Myopathies VCEP: PM6, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP2, PP3 (ClinGen Congenital Myopathies VCEP specifications version 2.0.0; 9/9/2024).
