Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points: 0P and 20B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2
The NM_053025.4(MYLK):c.4349G>A(p.Arg1450Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000779 in 1,614,162 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R1450W) has been classified as Likely benign.

Variant summary: MYLK c.4349G>A (p.Arg1450Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0011 in 251450 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.014 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 560 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYLK causing Aortopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4349G>A in individuals affected with Aortopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign (4x)/likely benign (1x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
Aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 7 Benign:2
- -
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 and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Benign:2
This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
