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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 17 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 15 uncertain in NM_000257.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the MYH7 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 341 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 16 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.9329 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.7889 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to myopathy, myosin storage, autosomal recessive, MYH7-related skeletal myopathy, congenital myopathy 7A, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, Ebstein anomaly, hyaline body myopathy, left ventricular noncompaction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 1, dilated cardiomyopathy 1S, dilated cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, familial isolated dilated cardiomyopathy, myopathy, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.927
• PP5: Variant 14-23425364-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-23425364-G-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 548985.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 781 of the MYH7 protein (p.Leu781Met). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25132132; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 548985). 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 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.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.L781M variant (also known as c.2341C>A), located in coding exon 19 of the MYH7 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2341. The leucine at codon 781 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in association with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) (Wang J et al. Eur J Heart Fail, 2014 Sep;16:950-7; Zhou H et al. Eur Radiol, 2021 Jun;31:3931-3940). This alteration is located in the myosin head domain, which contains a statistically significant clustering of pathogenic missense variants (Homburger JR et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2016 06;113:6701-6; Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2017 02;19:192-203; Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
