Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Uncertain:2
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu40*) in the TPM1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in TPM1 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs104894501, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43403). 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. -
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 2 of the TPM1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individual(s) affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24503780, 27532257). This variant has been identified in 1/250660 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Clinical significance of loss-of-function truncation variants in the TPM1 gene is not clearly established. 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. -
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 2 of the TPM1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in one individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24503780, 27532257). This variant has been identified in 1/250660 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Clinical relevance of loss-of-function truncation variants in the TPM1 gene is not clearly established. 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene or region of a gene for which loss of function is not a well-established mechanism of disease; Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene or region of a gene for which loss of function is not a well-established mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24503780, 35029218, 27532257) -
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 3;C2678476:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1Y Uncertain:1

Primary dilated cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
The p.Glu40X variant in TPM1 has not been reported in the literature nor previously identified by our laboratory. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 40, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. However, heterozygous loss of function of the TPM1 gene is not an established disease mechanism in DCM. In addition, mouse models with loss of a single TPM1 allele did not show any morphological or functional differences from wild type mice (Blanchard 1997), though it is not clear if the same impact would be observed in human hearts. In summary, additional studies are needed to fully assess the clinical significance of Glu40X variant. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The c.118G>T (p.E40*) alteration, located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the TPM1 gene, consists of a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 118. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid (E) to a stop codon at amino acid position 40. Premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature (Richards, 2015). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
