Genes affected
TTN (HGNC:12403): (titin) This gene encodes a large abundant protein of striated muscle. The product of this gene is divided into two regions, a N-terminal I-band and a C-terminal A-band. The I-band, which is the elastic part of the molecule, contains two regions of tandem immunoglobulin domains on either side of a PEVK region that is rich in proline, glutamate, valine and lysine. The A-band, which is thought to act as a protein-ruler, contains a mixture of immunoglobulin and fibronectin repeats, and possesses kinase activity. An N-terminal Z-disc region and a C-terminal M-line region bind to the Z-line and M-line of the sarcomere, respectively, so that a single titin molecule spans half the length of a sarcomere. Titin also contains binding sites for muscle associated proteins so it serves as an adhesion template for the assembly of contractile machinery in muscle cells. It has also been identified as a structural protein for chromosomes. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Considerable variability exists in the I-band, the M-line and the Z-disc regions of titin. Variability in the I-band region contributes to the differences in elasticity of different titin isoforms and, therefore, to the differences in elasticity of different muscle types. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 9, and autoantibodies to titin are produced in patients with the autoimmune disease scleroderma.

TTN-AS1 (HGNC:44124): (TTN antisense RNA 1) This gene encodes a non-coding RNA transcribed from the opposite strand to the titin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

The TTN c.36044C>G; p.Thr12015Arg variant (rs199868380; ClinVar Variation ID: 191988) is rare in the general population (<1% allele frequency in the Genome Aggregation Database) and has not been reported in the medical literature in association with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or other TTN-related disease. The clinical relevance of rare missense variants in this gene, which are identified on average once per individual sequenced in affected populations (Herman 2012), is not well understood. Yet, evidence suggests that the vast majority of such missense variants do not contribute to the clinical outcome of DCM (Begay 2015). Thus, the clinical significance of the p.Thr12015Arg variant cannot be determined with certainty. References: Begay RL et al. Role of Titin Missense Variants in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

Variant summary: TTN c.31484-1871C>G is located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. This variant corresponds to c.36044C>G (p.Thr12015Arg) in NM_001267550. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant strengthens a cryptic 3' acceptor site. One predicts the variant no significant impact on splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00036 in 1597802 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00045 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.15 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TTN causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.00039).The variant (described as c.36044C>G (p.Thr12015Arg)) has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cardiac disease phenotypes (e.g. Andersen_2019, Pham_2023), including at least one patient affected with Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM), however this patient also carried another likely pathogenic TTN variant, which could explain the phenotype (Pham_2023). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with TTN-related conditions. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31392414, 37199186). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191988). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
