Genes affected
TCAP (HGNC:11610): (titin-cap) Sarcomere assembly is regulated by the muscle protein titin. Titin is a giant elastic protein with kinase activity that extends half the length of a sarcomere. It serves as a scaffold to which myofibrils and other muscle related proteins are attached. This gene encodes a protein found in striated and cardiac muscle that binds to the titin Z1-Z2 domains and is a substrate of titin kinase, interactions thought to be critical to sarcomere assembly. Mutations in this gene are associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2G. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The p.C38F variant (also known as c.113G>T), located in coding exon 2 of the TCAP gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 113. The cysteine at codon 38 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported as homozygous in an individual with atypical cerebral palsy (Nejabat M et al. Front Pediatr, 2021 Sep;9:734946). This amino acid position is not well 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.

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 38 of the TCAP protein (p.Cys38Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs375310569, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 32451364). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 202108). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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.

Variant summary: TCAP c.113G>T (p.Cys38Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 0.00011 in 239770 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 4.3 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TCAP causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.113G>T has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with autosomal recessive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy attributed to a homozygous pathogenic variant in the TRIM63 gene (example, Salazar-Mendiguchia_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. The co-occurrence with other pathogenic variant mentioned above (TRIM63, p.Gln247*), provides supporting evidence for a benign role due to an alternate molecular basis of disease (Salazar-Mendiguchia_2020). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six 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. However, none of the submitters cite the evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
