Genes affected
TNNT2 (HGNC:11949): (troponin T2, cardiac type) This gene encodes the cardiac isoform of troponin T. The encoded protein is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as well as with dilated cardiomyopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

c.690-4G>T in intron 13 of TNNT2: This variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it is not located within the splice consensus sequence. It has been identified in 14/66732 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Co nsortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs201753429). -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: TNNT2 c.690-4G>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00017 in 251462 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TNNT2 causing Cardiomyopathy (0.00017 vs 0.00018), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.690-4G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy (Kassem_2013, Pugh_2014, Kassem_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. An internal sample with this variant also carried a pathogenic mutation in MYBPC3 variant (c.2373dupG), suggesting the variant of interest is likely not the cause of disease in this case and may be in the benign spectrum. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23233322, 24503780, Kassem et al). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43664). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
