Genes affected
MYBPC3 (HGNC:7551): (myosin binding protein C3) MYBPC3 encodes the cardiac isoform of myosin-binding protein C. Myosin-binding protein C is a myosin-associated protein found in the cross-bridge-bearing zone (C region) of A bands in striated muscle. MYBPC3 is expressed exclusively in heart muscle and is a key regulator of cardiac contraction. Mutations in this gene are a frequent cause of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 281 of the MYBPC3 protein (p.Arg281Gln). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20800588, 30685992). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 525001). 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 tolerated. 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.

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 281 of the MYBPC3 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20800588, 30685992). This variant has been identified in 11/217880 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 281 of the MYBPC3 protein. Computational prediction tools indicate that this variant has a neutral impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20800588, 30685992). This variant has been identified in 11/217880 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

The p.R281Q variant (also known as c.842G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the MYBPC3 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 842. The arginine at codon 281 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was identified in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy cohorts; however, details were not provided (Millat G et al. Clin. Chim. Acta, 2010 Dec;411:1983-91; Nagyova E et al. Bratisl Lek Listy, 2019;120:46-51). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on available evidence to date, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

The MYBPC3 c.842G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg281Gln. This variant has been reported in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Millat et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20800588; Nagyova et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30685992). In one report, a computational assessment interpreted the c.842G>A variant as likely benign (Table S1, Jordan et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21310275). This variant is reported in 0.0095% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
