Genes affected

ACTN2 (HGNC:164): (actinin alpha 2) Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a muscle-specific, alpha actinin isoform that is expressed in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Arg721Ser variant in ACTN2 has been identified by our laboratory in 1 adul t with DCM and 4 adults with HCM. This variant has also been identified in 39/66 732 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac. broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs149433837). Computational prediction tools and conse rvation analysis suggest that the p.Arg721Ser variant may impact the protein, th ough this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In su mmary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg721Ser variant is uncertain. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: ACTN2 c.2161C>A (p.Arg721Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00052 in 251484 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The observed variant frequency is approximately 20.8- fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in ACTN2 causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.2161C>A has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Cardiomyopathy (Pugh_2014). This report does 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. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. They cited the variant as likely benign (n=2) and uncertain significance (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is 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. -
