The NM_000070.3: c.759_761del variant in CAPN3, which is also known as c.756_758del, is predicted to cause a change in the length of the protein due to an in-frame deletion of one amino acid in a non-repeat region, p.(Lys254del) (PM4). This variant has been detected in at least 11 unrelated individuals with limb girdle muscular dystrophy (PMID: 26886200, 10330340, 16141003, 18055493, 30564623, 12461690, 35731190), including in a homozygous state in one case (0.5 pts; PMID: 18055493), confirmed in trans with a pathogenic variant in three cases (c.1468C>T p.(Arg490Trp), 1.0 pt, PMID: 12461690; c.1746-20C>G, 2.0 pts, PMID: 35731190), and in unknown phase with a pathogenic variant in one case (c.1468C>T p.(Arg490Trp), 0.5 pts, PMID: 18055493) (PM3_Very Strong). At least one patient with this variant displayed progressive limb girdle muscle weakness or a clinical suspicion of LGMD (PP4). The filtering allele frequency of the variant is 0.0001933 for European (non-Finnish) genome alleles in gnomAD v3.1.2 (the upper threshold of the 95% CI of 7/68016), which is greater than the LGMD VCEP threshold (<0.0001) for PM2_Supporting (criterion not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for autosomal recessive limb girdle muscular dystrophy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LGMD VCEP (LGMD VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; 01/09/2025): PM4, PM3_Very Strong, PP4.
