Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Moderate

The NM_000363.5(TNNI3):​c.626A>C​(p.Glu209Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E209K) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

TNNI3 (HGNC:11947): (troponin I3, cardiac type) Troponin I (TnI), along with troponin T (TnT) and troponin C (TnC), is one of 3 subunits that form the troponin complex of the thin filaments of striated muscle. TnI is the inhibitory subunit; blocking actin-myosin interactions and thereby mediating striated muscle relaxation. The TnI subfamily contains three genes: TnI-skeletal-fast-twitch, TnI-skeletal-slow-twitch, and TnI-cardiac. This gene encodes the TnI-cardiac protein and is exclusively expressed in cardiac muscle tissues. Mutations in this gene cause familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy type 7 (CMH7) and familial restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). Troponin I is useful in making a diagnosis of heart failure, and of ischemic heart disease. An elevated level of troponin is also now used as indicator of acute myocardial injury in patients hospitalized with moderate/severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Such elevation has also been associated with higher risk of mortality in cardiovascular disease patients hospitalized due to COVID-19. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a chain Troponin I, cardiac muscle (size 208) in uniprot entity TNNI3_HUMAN there are 86 pathogenic changes around while only 10 benign (90%) in NM_000363.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr19-55151842-C-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.866

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the TNNI3 gene. The E209A variant has been reported as a possibly deleterious variant in at least 5 unrelated probands with cardiomyopathy (van den Wijngaard et al., 2011); however, familial segregation information and in vitro functional studies were not included. Nevertheless, the E209A variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). This variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. Additionally, this substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals. Finally, in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 209 of the TNNI3 protein (p.Glu209Ala). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with TNNI3-related conditions (PMID: 21533915, 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 181595). 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. 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. -

The p.E209A variant (also known as c.626A>C), located in coding exon 8 of the TNNI3 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 626. The glutamic acid at codon 209 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in a subject with features of restrictive cardiomyopathy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) cohorts (van den Wijngaard A et al. Neth Heart J, 2011 Aug;19:344-51; Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2017 02;19:192-203; Marschall C et al. Cardiovasc Diagn Ther, 2019 Oct;9:S292-S298; van Lint FHM et al. Neth Heart J, 2019 Jun;27:304-309). 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. -
