The NM_001267550.2(TTN):​c.22386T>A​(p.Asp7462Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000793 in 1,613,432 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/19 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Uncertain significance in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D7462R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 p.Asp6218Glu (c.18654T>A) variant in TTN has been identified by our laborato ry in 1 adult with DCM who also carries a pathogenic variant in TTN. In addition , this variant has been identified in 1/8218 European American chromosomes by th e NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/) and in 1/12 8 Mexican chromosomes by the 1000 Genomes Project (dbSNP rs183482849). Computati onal prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support fo r or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Asp6218Glu variant is uncertain. -

Variant summary: TTN c.18654T>A (p.Asp6218Glu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the I-band domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 248042 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in TTN causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy (0.00012 vs 0.00039), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.18654T>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy, without strong evidence for causality (ie. Kostareva_2016, Mucheu_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Dilated Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation; two classified as benign/likely benign while three classified as VUS. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The TTN c.22386T>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp7462Glu. This variant was reported in individuals with restrictive cardiomyopathy or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; however, no additional studies were performed to help assess the pathogenicity of this variant (Table S3, Kostareva et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27662471; Micheu et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33297573). This variant is reported in 0.023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-179587128-A-T) and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from benign to uncertain (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/46699). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with glutamic acid at codon 7462 of the TTN protein (p.Asp7462Glu). There is a small physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and glutamic acid. This variant is present in population databases (rs183482849, ExAC 0.02%). This variant has been reported in individuals in the Leiden Open-source Variation Database (PMID: 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 46699). This variant is located in the I band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Variants in this region may be relevant for neuromuscular disorders, but have not been definitively shown to cause cardiomyopathy (PMID: 23975875). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are unavailable for the TTN gene. 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. -
