Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 0P and 0B.
The NM_003673.4(TCAP):c.208C>T(p.Arg70Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000349 in 1,606,332 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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. R70Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

The p.R70W variant (also known as c.208C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the TCAP gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 208. The arginine at codon 70 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was detected in the homozygous state (along with other homozygous variants) in a patient with complex congenital heart defect, ambiguous genitalia, and mild limb hypotonia (Mazen I et al. Sex Dev, 2016 Apr;10:16-22). This variant has also been detected in the heterozygous state in cohorts with cardiomyopathy or arrhythmia (Theis JL et al. Biochem Biophys Res Commun, 2006 Dec;351:896-902; Blom LJ et al. Europace, 2019 Oct;21:1519-1526; Verdonschot JAJ et al. Circ Genom Precis Med, 2020 Oct;13:476-487; Ware SM et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2022 Feb;109:282-298). This amino acid position is well 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 tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 70 of the TCAP protein (p.Arg70Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs775636212, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and/or dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 17097056, 32880476; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189789). 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. -
