Genes affected
TAFAZZIN (HGNC:11577): (tafazzin, phospholipid-lysophospholipid transacylase) This gene encodes a protein that is expressed at high levels in cardiac and skeletal muscle. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a number of clinical disorders including Barth syndrome, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), hypertrophic DCM, endocardial fibroelastosis, and left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. A long form and a short form of each of these isoforms is produced; the short form lacks a hydrophobic leader sequence and may exist as a cytoplasmic protein rather than being membrane-bound. Other alternatively spliced transcripts have been described but the full-length nature of all these transcripts is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
DNASE1L1 (HGNC:2957): (deoxyribonuclease 1 like 1) This gene encodes a deoxyribonuclease protein that shows high sequence similarity to DNase I. The encoded protein is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and modified by N-linked glycosylation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants encoding the same protein have been observed.

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 07, 2011Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The Val5Leu var iant has not been reported in the literature but has been identified in an Ashke nazi Jewish individual with mild DCM and muscle weakness as well as two family m embers (brother and mother) with similar features. The variant was absent from 332 Ashkenazi Jewish control chromosomes, which is consistent with a pathogenic role (LMM unpublished data). Valine (Val) at position 5 is conserved across mamm als and amphibians, but is not 100% conserved across more evolutionary distant s pecies (fruitfly and yeast), reducing the likelihood that the change is pathogen ic. Valine and Leucine have similar biochemical properties, which also suggest t hat the change may not severely affect the protein. However, most TAZ variants a re pathogenic and cause Barth syndrome (www.barthsyndrome.org). In summary, thi s variant likely causes or contributes to disease but additional data is needed to establish this with certainty. Please note that a new biochemical test is ava ilable that can help establish a diagnosis of Barth syndrome (see recommendation s section). -
3-Methylglutaconic aciduria type 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 16, 2022This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 5 of the TAZ protein (p.Val5Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs397515737, gnomAD 0.08%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TAZ-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 42253). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available"). 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 17, 2017A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the TAZ gene. The V5L variant has not been published as pathogenic or been reported as benign to our knowledge. However, it is classified as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar by a different clinical laboratory, where it was observed in an Ashkenazi Jewish individual with mild DCM and muscle weakness, and segregated with similar features in this individual's mother and brother (ClinVar SCV000058726.4; Landrum et al., 2016). The V5L variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). Additionally, this substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Nevertheless, the V5L variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. Furthermore, this variant lacks observation in a significant number of affected individuals, large segregation studies, and functional evidence, which would further clarify its pathogenicity. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 10, 2021The p.V5L variant (also known as c.13G>T), located in coding exon 1 of the TAZ gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 13. The valine at codon 5 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.00387% (5/147643) total alleles studied, with 0 hemizygote(s) observed. The highest observed frequency was 0.07389% (5/6767) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles. 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. -
