Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy and Distal Myopathy
Gene: LDB3
Comment on mode of inheritance: AD missense variants in LDB3 that affect only short isoforms are associated with skeletal myopathies, while AR LoF variants cause paediatric cardiomyopathyCreated: 27 Jul 2024, 1:41 a.m. | Last Modified: 27 Jul 2024, 1:41 a.m.

5 families with biallelic loss of function variants (homozygous & chet) with lethal/paediatric cardiomyopathy. Parents/heterozygotes appear to be unaffected. Also, knockdown mouse model suggesting deficiency induces DCM by mediating apoptosis in cardiomyocytes.

OMIM: Onset in late adulthood (44 to 73 years)
PMID: 27546599 - 1 family with late onset muscle weakness (>50 years old), asymmetric muscle atrophy, cardiomyopathy and neuropathy. Paper reviews previous reports and notes age of onset was 25-73 years old with majority of patients in their 40s. A single report noted a 7 year-old child with a recurring missense variant (p.Ala165Val)
PMID: 25911362 - 1 family with lower limb weakness and myofibrillar myopathy. Proband reported weakness at ~55 years old, was heterozygous for the recurring missense variant (p.Ala165Val).
