Genes affected

VCL (HGNC:12665): (vinculin) Vinculin is a cytoskeletal protein associated with cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions, where it is thought to function as one of several interacting proteins involved in anchoring F-actin to the membrane. Defects in VCL are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1W. Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 669 of the VCL protein (p.Arg669Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs759771302, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VCL-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 300793). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2006G>A (p.R669Q) alteration is located in exon 14 (coding exon 14) of the VCL gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2006, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 669 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The heterozygous c.2006G>A (p.Arg669Gln) missense variant identified in the VCL gene has not been reported in affected individuals in the literature. The variant has 0.00001315 allele frequency in the gnomAD(v3) database (2 out of 152046 heterozygous alleles, no homozygotes) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a variant of uncertain significance [Variation ID: 300793]. The variant affects a conserved residue and multiple in silico prediction tools provide conflicting predictions about potential pathogenicity ofthis variant (CADD score = 29.8, REVEL score = 0.179). Based on the available evidence, the heterozygous c.2006G>A (p.Arg669Gln) missense variant identified inthe VCL gene is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID# 300793; Landrum et al., 2016) -
