The NM_000070.3: c.2362_2363delinsTCATCT p.(Arg788SerfsTer14) variant in CAPN3 is a frameshift variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically relevant exon 23/24 that may cause loss of function of the protein, however, it is predicted to escape nonsense mediated decay and remove <10% of the protein (PVS1_Moderate). This variant has been detected in at least 30 individuals with limb girdle muscular dystrophy, including in a homozygous state in one patient (0.5 pts, PMID: 18337726), in trans with a pathogenic variant in at least one patient (c.643_663del p.(Ser215_Gly221del), 1.0 pt, PMID: 9150160), and in unknown phase with a pathogenic variant (c.223dup p.(Tyr75LeufsTer5), 0.5 pts, PMID: 30564623, LOVD Individual #00220184) (PM3_Strong). At least one patient with this variant displayed a clinical suspicion of limb girdle muscular dystrophy and absent expression of calpain-3, which is highly specific for CAPN3-related LGMD (PP4_Strong; PMID: 18337726). The variant has also been reported to segregate with LGMD in one affected family member (PP1; PMID: 9150160). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2 (PM2_Supporting). 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): PVS1_Moderate, PM3_Strong, PP4_Strong, PP1, PM2_Supporting.
