Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:5
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 597 of the MYBPC3 protein (p.Arg597Gln). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 18, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs727503195, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) (PMID: 23674513, 24111713, 25086479, 27532257, 27600940). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 164098). 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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 25849606, 28679633). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg597Gln variant in MYBPC3 has been identified in at least 15 individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and segregated with disease in 1 affected relative (Berge 2014, Curila 2012, Chiou 2015, Millat 2015, Walsh 2016, LMM data, GeneDx pers. comm., Ambry pers comm., Invitae pers. comm., Stanford pers. comm., CHEO pers. comm, SHaRe database). The variant has been identified in 5/166884 chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This variant is located in the last three bases of the exon, which is part of the 5' splice region. An in vitro functional study showed that cells harboring this variant produced a shorter mRNA product than wild type cells, consistent with skipping of exon 18 (Millat 2015). Computational tools also suggest some impact to splicing. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant HCM.

The c.1790G>A (p.Arg597Gln) variant of the MYBPC3 gene is predicted to replace arginine with glutamine at codon 597 of the MYBPC3 protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 18, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. Studies using in vitro hybrid minigene assays suggested aberrant splicing impact from the c.1790G>A variant and an altered mRNA splicing leading to a premature termination codon (PMID: 28679633). This variant has been observed in multiple individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) (PMID: 23674513, 24111713, 25086479, 27532257, 27600940, 22455086, 25849606). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in 1 affected relative (PMID: 25086479). This variant has been identified in 5/166884 chromosomes in the general population according to the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. Based on these evidence, c.1790G>A (p.Arg597Gln) variant in MYBPC3 gene is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
The c.1790G>A variant (also known as p.R597Q), located in coding exon 18 of the MYBPC3 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1790. The amino acid change results in arginine to glutamine at codon 597, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 18, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This variant also has been reported in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) cohorts (Curila K et al. Acta Cardiol. 2012;67:23-9; Berge KE et al. Clin Genet. 2014;86:355-60; Witjas-Paalberends ER et al. Cardiovasc. Res. 2013 Aug;99(3):432-41; Chiou KR et al. J Cardiol. 2015;65:250-6; Walsh R et al. Genet Med. 2017;19:192-203). In one study, an in vitro minigene splicing assay has suggested this variant results in out-of-frame skipping of exon 18 which results in the introduction of a premature truncation codon (Millat G et al. DNA Cell Biol. 2015;34:489-96), and a second minigene assay has also suggested aberrant splicing impact (Ito K. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.. 2017 Jul;114(29):7689-7694). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, as a missense substitution this is predicted to be inconclusive by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
MYBPC3-related cardiomyopathies Pathogenic:1
This variant affects the last nucleotide of exon 18 of MYBPC3 gene and may therefore alter native splicing. This variant has been previously reported as a heterozygous change in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 22455086, 25849606, 25086479, 27532257, 31006259). In-vitro studies in mammalian cells using a mini gene assays have shown that this missense change results in aberrant splicing (PMID: 25849606, 28679633). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.003% (5/166884) and thus is presumed to be rare. The c.1790G>A (p.Arg597Gln) variant is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. Based on the available evidence, the c.1790G>A (p.Arg597Gln) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
