Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 23P and 0B. PS3 PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000371.4(TTR):​c.113A>G​(p.Asp38Gly) variant causes a missense change. 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 Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000060025: Furthermore, functional analyses showed the Asp38Gly variant results in an abnormal protein that is highly destabilized, has diminished secretion, and has abnormal cellular localization (Hammarstrom 2003, Sekijima 2005)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D38E) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

TTR (HGNC:12405): (transthyretin) This gene encodes one of the three prealbumins, which include alpha-1-antitrypsin, transthyretin and orosomucoid. The encoded protein, transthyretin, is a homo-tetrameric carrier protein, which transports thyroid hormones in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. It is also involved in the transport of retinol (vitamin A) in the plasma by associating with retinol-binding protein. The protein may also be involved in other intracellular processes including proteolysis, nerve regeneration, autophagy and glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with amyloid deposition, predominantly affecting peripheral nerves or the heart, while a small percentage of the gene mutations are non-amyloidogenic. The mutations are implicated in the etiology of several diseases, including amyloidotic polyneuropathy, euthyroid hyperthyroxinaemia, amyloidotic vitreous opacities, cardiomyopathy, oculoleptomeningeal amyloidosis, meningocerebrovascular amyloidosis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000060025: Furthermore, functional analyses showed the Asp38Gly variant results in an abnormal protein that is highly destabilized, has diminished secretion, and has abnormal cellular localization (Hammarstrom 2003, Sekijima 2005).; SCV002119879: 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 TTR protein function.
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 14 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_000371.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr18-31592940-T-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1359774.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 108 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 3 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.0149 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.5458 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hereditary ATTR amyloidosis, heart conduction disease, familial amyloid neuropathy, ATTRV122I amyloidosis, amyloidosis, hereditary systemic 1.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
• PP5: Variant 18-31592939-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-31592939-A-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 13463.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
