Genes affected

ACTC1 (HGNC:143): (actin alpha cardiac muscle 1) Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility. Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin) in the form of a two-stranded helix. Each actin can bind to four others. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the actin family which is comprised of three main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta, and gamma. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. Defects in this gene have been associated with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) and familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Jun 03, 2009	- -
Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Jan 25, 2018	Variant summary: The ACTC1 c.219C>T (p.Ile73Ile) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. Though one in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant, 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing, as well as ESE finder predicts that this variant doesnt affect ESE sites. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 33/277206 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.000999 (24/24022). This frequency is about 40 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic ACTC1 variant (0.000025), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of African origin. In addition, one clinical diagnostic laboratory classified this variant as likely benign. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -

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. -
