Genes affected

MYH7 (HGNC:7577): (myosin heavy chain 7) Muscle myosin is a hexameric protein containing 2 heavy chain subunits, 2 alkali light chain subunits, and 2 regulatory light chain subunits. This gene encodes the beta (or slow) heavy chain subunit of cardiac myosin. It is expressed predominantly in normal human ventricle. It is also expressed in skeletal muscle tissues rich in slow-twitch type I muscle fibers. Changes in the relative abundance of this protein and the alpha (or fast) heavy subunit of cardiac myosin correlate with the contractile velocity of cardiac muscle. Its expression is also altered during thyroid hormone depletion and hemodynamic overloading. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myosin storage myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and Laing distal myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Variant summary: MYH7 c.5656-4G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.4e-05 in 251402 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MYH7 causing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (6.4e-05 vs 0.0013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.5656-4G>A has been reported in the presumed heterozygous state with or without other variants in the literature in individuals affected with clinical features of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and or dilated cardiomyopathy (example, Jaaskelainen_2019, Lu_2018, Zhang_2024) without strong evidence for causality. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (MYH7 c.428G>A, p.Arg143Gln), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30775854, 30165862, 37907184). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 516360). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
