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]
MHRT (HGNC:51291): (myosin heavy chain associated RNA transcript) This gene encodes a spliced long non-coding RNA that may act as a cardioprotective agent in the heart. Based on a study of a similar gene in mouse, the encoded transcript may regulate chromatin remodeling by acting as a decoy to the BRG1 chromatin repressor complex thus preventing it from binding to its genomic targets. Blocking the actions of BRG1 could be crucial in protecting the heart from pathological hypertrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

The p.Ala1763Thr variant in MYH7 has been reported in 1 infant with HCM, who also carried a pathogenic variant in MYBC3, and 6 individuals with cardiomyopathy (5 with HCM, and 1 with DCM: Berge 2014, Bos 2014, Alfares 2015, Walsh 2017, LMM data). One of the individuals with HCM carried an additional pathogenic variant in MYH7 sufficient to explain their disease. This variant has also been identified in 14/126724 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs727504355). This variant was predicted to be pathogenic using a computational tool clinically validated by our laboratory. This tool's pathogenic prediction is estimated to be correct 94% of the time (Jordan 2011). In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the p.Ala1763Thr variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: BS1_P.

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1763 of the MYH7 protein (p.Ala1763Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs727504355, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy or sudden death (PMID: 24111713, 24793961, 25611685, 26468400, 27532257, 27600940, 28790153, 28807990). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 177846). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYH7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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

This missense variant replaces alanine with threonine at codon 1763 of the MYH7 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 31513939, 24111713, 24793961, 25611685, 27532257, 27600940, 28790153, 33495597, 38489124), in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26468400), and in an individual affected with sudden unexplained death (PMID: 28807990). One individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy also carried a pathogenic variant in a different gene (PMID: 27600940). This variant has been identified in 21/282898 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 alanine with threonine at codon 1763 of the MYH7 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24111713, 24793961, 25611685, 27532257, 27600940, 28790153), in one individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26468400), and in an individual affected with sudden unexplained death (PMID: 28807990). One individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy carried a pathogenic variant in a different gene in addition to this variant (PMID: 27600940). This variant has been identified in 21/282898 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 variant is classified as VUS-3B. Evidence in support of pathogenic classification: Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 (v4: 181 heterozygote(s), 0 homozygote(s)); Missense variant predicted to be damaging by in silico tool(s) or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. Additional information: Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from alanine to threonine; This variant is heterozygous; This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Disease associated with this gene usually has autosomal dominant inheritance; however, a recessive inheritance pattern has been observed in severe cases (OMIM); Alternative amino acid change(s) at the same position are present in gnomAD (highest allele count: v4: 6 heterozygote(s), 0 homozygote(s)); Previous evidence of pathogenicity for this variant is inconclusive. This variant has been classified as a VUS by clinical laboratories in ClinVar. This variant has also been reported in the literature in individuals with sudden death or hypertrophic/dilated cardiomyopathy. At least one of these reported individuals had an alternative pathogenic variant (PMIDs: 26468400, 27600940, 28408708, 28807990); No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant; Another missense variant(s) comparable to the one identified in this case has inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. p.(Ala1763Ser) has been classified as a VUS by a diagnostic laboratory in ClinVar; Variant is located in the annotated myosin tail domain (DECIPHER); The mechanism of disease for this gene is not clearly established; however, missense variants have been proposed to act in a dominant negative manner (PMID: 24714796); The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (PMID: 29300372); This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by trio analysis).

The Ala1763Thr variant has been previously reported in 4 SUD cases (Dewar LJ et al., 2017), 3 DCM cases (Broch K, et al., 2018; LMM, Pers. Comm.; Phosphorus inc, ClinVar SCV000679791), 1 LVNC case (Blueprint, ClinVar SCV000264098), 3 myopathy cases (Phosphorus inc, ClinVar SCV000679793-5) and 7 HCM cases (Walsh et al., 2017; Cecconi M, et al., 2016; Bos JM, et al., 2014; Berge & Leren, 2014; Invitae, ClinVar SCV000546187; Phosphorus inc, ClinVar SCV000679792). It is present at an elevated frequency of 0.0000685 in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The MYH7 Ala1736Thr variant occurs in a conserved region, and in silico tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, MutationTaster and CADD) support a damaging role for this variant. We have identified this variant in a single HCM proband who has no family history of disease (Ingles J et al., 2017; Burns C, et al., 2017). Based on the adapted ACMG guidelines (Kelly MA, et al., 2018), this variant is not rare in the general population and therefore probands cannot be counted as evidence. In silico tools predict it to deleterious (PP3), therefore we classify MYH7 Ala1763Thr as a variant of 'uncertain significance'.

The MYH7 c.5287G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala1763Thr. This variant was reported in multiple individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or dilated cardiomyopathy (Berge et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24111713; Broch et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26468400; Table S1B, Walsh et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27532257; Table S2, Burns et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28790153; Table S2, Robyns et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31513939), as well as in four pediatric cases of sudden unexplained death (Dewar et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28807990). However, another cohort study found this variant only in eight individuals in the control group and none of the hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients (Table S6, Park et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34542152). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/177846/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.

Variant summary: MYH7 c.5287G>A (p.Ala1763Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Myosin tail domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251494 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MYH7 causing Cardiomyopathy (6.8e-05 vs 0.0013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.5287G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HCM, DCM, or sudden unexpected death. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. Co-occurrences with a pathogenic variant has been reported (TTN c.48868C>T, p.Arg16290X), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Ten clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

The p.A1763T variant (also known as c.5287G>A), located in coding exon 35 of the MYH7 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5287. The alanine at codon 1763 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and sudden death; however, clinical details were limited (Bos JM et al. Mayo Clin. Proc., 2014 Jun;89:727-37; Berge KE et al. Clin. Genet., 2014 Oct;86:355-60; Broch K et al. Open Heart, 2015 Oct;2:e000271; Alfares AA et al. Genet. Med., 2015 Nov;17:880-8; Dewar LJ et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet. 2017 Aug;10(4); Ramchand J et al. J Am Heart Assoc. 2020 01;9(2):e013346). In one HCM case, the individual also had a second alteration in another cardiac-related gene (Cecconi M et al. Int. J. Mol. Med., 2016 Oct;38:1111-24). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
