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]

Cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 30, 2023The c.5655G>A (p.Ala1885=) in the MYH7 gene is a synonymous variant located in last nucleotide of exon 38, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects proper mRNA splicing, resulting in an in-frame skipping of exon 38 and a shortening of the encoded protein by 32 amino acids (PMID: 26782017, 27387980). This variant has been reported in two individuals: one with early onset muscular weakness and fiber-type disproportion (PMID: 26782017) and a second patient with an early infantile onset of respiratory muscle impairment and left bundle branch block (PMID: 27387980). Notably, several patients with different genomic variants but identical exon 38 skipping (c.5655+1G>A, c.5655+5G>C) also demonstrate cardiac manifestations in the form of dilated cardiomyopathy and left ventricular non-compaction (PMID: 30794915, 27387980). This variant has been observed at an ultra-low frequency in the general population (gnomAD database 3/251,438). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthAug 11, 2023This synonymous variant alters the conserved c.G at the last nucleotide of exon 38 of the MYH7 gene and has been shown to cause aberrant splicing and in-frame skipping of exon 38 (p.1854_1885del) (PMID: 26782017, 27387980, 30794915). This variant is expected to result in the expression of a truncated protein missing a part of LMM domain, which is a C-terminal tail region that forms the thick filament backbone and interacts with other proteins (PMID: 25125180). This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with congenital myopathy without cardiac involvement (PMID: 26782017, 33333461) and in an individual affected with congenital myopathy with cardiac left bundle block (PMID: 27387980). The variant occurred de novo in two carriers (PMID: 26782017, 27387980). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This variant has been identified in 3/251438 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In summary, this variant may have adverse structural impact by disrupting RNA splicing, but its impact on MYH7 protein function remains unknown. While this variant has been observed in individuals with congenital myopathy, the available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in autosomal dominant hypertrophic cardiomyopathy conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 27, 2023This sequence change affects codon 1885 of the MYH7 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MYH7 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs753392652, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with MYH7-related myopathy (PMID: 26782017, 27387980). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 378215). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of skipping of exon 38, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 26782017, 27387980). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 16, 2019The c.5655G>A pathogenic mutation (also known as p.A1885A), located in coding exon 36 of the MYH7 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5655. This nucleotide substitution does not change the alanine at codon 1885. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 36, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This alteration has been detected in multiple individuals with MYH7-related myopathies and reportedly arose de novo in three of the cases (Pajusalu S et al. Neuromuscul. Disord., 2016 Mar;26:236-9; Fiorillo C et al. Orphanet J Rare Dis, 2016 07;11:91; Invitae pers. comm.; GeneDx pers. comm.; Ambry internal data). RNA studies indicate that this variant disrupts normal splicing, leading to the in-frame skipping of exon 38 (Pajusalu S et al. Neuromuscul. Disord., 2016 Mar;26:236-9; Fiorillo C et al. Orphanet J Rare Dis, 2016 07;11:91). Internal structural assessment suggests that the predicted resulting in-frame deletion would disrupt the coiled-coil formation in the Assembly Competency Domain, which appears to be critical for thick filament assembly (Sohn RL et al. J. Mol. Biol., 1997 Feb;266:317-30; Delorenzi M et al. Bioinformatics, 2002 Apr;18:617-25; Gruber M et al. J. Struct. Biol., 2006 Aug;155:140-5; Ambry internal data). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation for MYH7-related skeletal myopathy; however, the association with cardiomyopathy is unclear. -
