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]

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

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 136 in the tropomyosin binding domain of the TNNT2 protein. Computational prediction tools indicate that this variant has a deleterious impact on protein structure and function. In an experimental Drosophila knock-in model, animals expressing this variant demonstrated severe diastolic dysfunction and hypercontraction of indirect flight muscle myofibrils (PMID: 32690703). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 28416588, 32659924). This variant has also been reported in an individual affected with restrictive cardiomyopathy, as well as in an unaffected parent and sibling (PMID: 18467357). This variant has been identified in 3/281494 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 136 in the tropomyosin binding domain of the TNNT2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study has shown that this variant may affect the actin-myosin interactions in in vitro motility assay and affect the heart function in transgenic Drosophila model (PMID: 32690703; Madan et al., 2019). However, clinical relevance of these observations is not clear. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 28416588, 32659924). This variant has also been reported in an individual affected with restrictive cardiomyopathy, as well as in an unaffected parent and sibling (PMID: 18467357). This variant has been identified in 3/281494 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Identified in individuals with restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in the published literature (PMID: 36396199, 31514951, 18467357, 20031618, 28416588, 32659924); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Published in vitro functional studies suggest a damaging effect as this variant causes impaired relaxation and reduced contractile inhibition resulting in cardiac dysfunction in animal models and human cardiomyocytes (PMID: 32690703); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Also known as p.(E131K); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20031618, 28416588, 32659924, 33429969, 36396199, 18467357, 31514951, 32690703, Yang2022[article])

The p.E136K variant (also known as c.406G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the TNNT2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 406. The glutamic acid at codon 136 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant (also referred to as p.E131K) has been detected individuals from dilated cardiomyopathy cohorts, and in a proband with restrictive cardiomyopathy as well as two clinically unaffected relatives (Kaski JP et al. Heart. 2008;94:1478-84; Dal Ferro M et al. Heart. 2017;103:1704-1710; Kolokotronis K et al. J Clin Med. 2020 Jul;9(7)). In studies of drosophila and rat cardiomyocytes expressing this variant, some disease features were recapitulated (Madan A et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2020 Aug;117(31):18822-18831). 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.

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 136 of the TNNT2 protein (p.Glu136Lys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of TNNT2-related conditions (PMID: 18467357, 28416588, 32659924, 36396199). This variant is also known as c.391G>A (p.E131K). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 180552). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TNNT2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TNNT2 function (PMID: 32690703). 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.
