Congenital myopathy v5.14 VWA1 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Publications for gene: VWA1 were set to 33459760
Congenital myopathy v5.13 VWA1 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram changed review comment from: The rating of this gene should remain amber on this panel based on recommendation by Anna Sarkozy. Her recommendation is based on evidence from new publications on this gene and associated phenotype, which is summarised in the review, PMID:39502942.

The recommendation from the NHS Genomic Medicine Service is as below:
The myopathic nature of the conditions associated with this gene remains controversial and currently there doesn't appear to be sufficient evidence to consider VWA1-related disorder as a myopathy. Therefore this gene-condition is out of scope of this Clinical Indication and at most should remain amber.; to: The rating of this gene should remain amber on this panel based on recommendation by Anna Sarkozy.

Added comment: In PMID: 33459760 Deschauer et al 2021 report 15 affected individuals from six families of German, Arabic, and Roma descent with biallelic loss of function variants in VWA1 and a neuromuscular phenotype. In 3 of the families the onset of symptoms was in childhood (ages 2-18yr in F3, ages 2-3yr in F4, and at school age in F5). Muscle biopsies of 3 individuals (F1-II.2, F2-II.1, and F5-II.1) revealed myopathic changes. A 10-bp tandem repeat is duplicated in one variant (p.Gly25Argfs*74]) and deleted in another variant (p.Gly21Alafs*12]). The duplication was found in 3 German families, homozygous in one and compound heterozygous in the other two.

PMID: 33559681 Pagnamenta et al 2021 report 17 individuals from 15 families with an autosomal-recessive, hereditary motor neuropathy and rare biallelic variants in VWA1. The p.(G25Rfs*74) 10-bp repeat expansion was observed in 14/15 families and was homozygous in 10/15. The authors state that the mean age of symptom recognition was 2.0 ± 1.4 years with tip-toe walking, foot deformities, Achilles tendon contractures, and recurrent hip and patellar dislocations.

Given the young age of onset in some patients and myopathy seen in biopsys this gene may be a candidate for green rating on this panel, subject to expert review.
