• rs8068729
• NM_002472.3:c.714T>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_002472.3(MYH8):​c.714T>A​(p.Thr238Thr) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T238T) has been classified as Benign.

Genes affected

MYH8 (HGNC:7578): (myosin heavy chain 8) Myosins are actin-based motor proteins that function in the generation of mechanical force in eukaryotic cells. Muscle myosins are heterohexamers composed of 2 myosin heavy chains and 2 pairs of nonidentical myosin light chains. This gene encodes a member of the class II or conventional myosin heavy chains, and functions in skeletal muscle contraction. This gene is predominantly expressed in fetal skeletal muscle. This gene is found in a cluster of myosin heavy chain genes on chromosome 17. A mutation in this gene results in trismus-pseudocamptodactyly syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

MYHAS (HGNC:50609): (myosin heavy chain gene cluster antisense RNA) Predicted to enable primary miRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in response to muscle activity and skeletal muscle fiber development. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on gene expression. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.94).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-5.56 with no splicing effect.
