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]

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 1560 of the MYH7 protein. Computational prediction tools indicate that this variant has 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 at least one individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27247418, 30297972, 31199839). This variant has been identified in 4/282352 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. -

To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27247418). This variant has been identified in 4/282352 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
Jan 11, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
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 1560 of the MYH7 protein (p.Arg1560Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs730880806, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27247418). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 181262). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYH7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg1560 amino acid residue in MYH7. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 30166250). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford University
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. p.Arg1560Gln (R1560Q; c.4679 G>A) in the MYH7 gene. We classify it as a variant of unknown significance as well. This variant is completely novel and has not previously been reported in individuals with HCM. There is no published segregation data. Variation at one nearby residue has been reported in the HGMD to be associated with HCM: Glu1555Lys. This may support the functional importance of this region of the protein. This is a non-conservative amino acid change, resulting in the replacement of an arginine (basic) with a glutamine (polar). Arginine at this location is 100% conserved across 9 mammalian species. The adjacent residues are also highly conserved. In silico analysis with PolyPhen-2 (http://genetics.bwh.harvard.edu/pph2/) predicts the variant to be “Possibly Damaging” with a score of 0.562. This variant has not been seen in ~6500 individuals from publicly available population datasets as of January 24, 2014. It is not listed in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project dataset (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/), which currently includes variant calls on ~4300 Caucasian and ~2200 African American individuals. There is also no variation at this codon listed in 1000 Genomes or dbSNP. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The MYH7 c.4679G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1560Gln. This variant was reported as a variant of uncertain significance in both control and affected individuals in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy cohort studies (Dataset S1; Homburger et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27247418; Table S6, Park et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34542152). This variant is reported in 0.0056% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as uncertain significance by the majority of submitters in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/181262/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Jul 28, 2021
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R1560Q variant (also known as c.4679G>A), located in coding exon 32 of the MYH7 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4679. The arginine at codon 1560 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was reported in a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Homburger JR et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2016 06;113:6701-6). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
