Genes affected

MYH7 (HGNC:7577): (myosin heavy chain 7) Muscle myosin is a hexameric protein containing 2 heavy chain subunits, 2 alkali light chain subunits, and 2 regulatory light chain subunits. This gene encodes the beta (or slow) heavy chain subunit of cardiac myosin. It is expressed predominantly in normal human ventricle. It is also expressed in skeletal muscle tissues rich in slow-twitch type I muscle fibers. Changes in the relative abundance of this protein and the alpha (or fast) heavy subunit of cardiac myosin correlate with the contractile velocity of cardiac muscle. Its expression is also altered during thyroid hormone depletion and hemodynamic overloading. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myosin storage myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and Laing distal myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

MYH7 links:

MHRT (HGNC:51291): (myosin heavy chain associated RNA transcript) This gene encodes a spliced long non-coding RNA that may act as a cardioprotective agent in the heart. Based on a study of a similar gene in mouse, the encoded transcript may regulate chromatin remodeling by acting as a decoy to the BRG1 chromatin repressor complex thus preventing it from binding to its genomic targets. Blocking the actions of BRG1 could be crucial in protecting the heart from pathological hypertrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Arg1608His variant in MYH7 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy but has been identified in 0.006% (1/16252) of African chromosomes and in 0.004% (1/21648) of Finnish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R1608H variant (also known as c.4823G>A), located in coding exon 32 of the MYH7 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4823. The arginine at codon 1608 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) cohort and has also been reported in a large biobank cohort (Nguyen TV et al. Circ J, 2021 Aug;85:1469-1478; Park J et al. Hum Mol Genet, 2022 Mar;31:827-837). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1608 of the MYH7 protein (p.Arg1608His). This variant is present in population databases (rs587779391, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 34011823). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1012345). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYH7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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. -
