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]

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 21) in uniprot entity MYH7_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000257.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr14-23416057-G-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
• PP2: Missense variant in the MYH7 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 341 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 16 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.9329 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.7889 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hyaline body myopathy, MYH7-related skeletal myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy 1S, congenital myopathy 7A, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, dilated cardiomyopathy, left ventricular noncompaction, myopathy, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, Ebstein anomaly, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, myopathy, myosin storage, autosomal recessive, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 1, familial isolated dilated cardiomyopathy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.944

Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1

Jun 26, 2023

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with leucine at codon 1634 of the MYH7 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with neuromuscular disease (PMID: 32528171). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1

Jan 21, 2025

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1634 of the MYH7 protein (p.Arg1634Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle weakness and/or elevated creatine kinase (PMID: 32528171). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2978574). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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. -
