Genes affected

TPM1 (HGNC:12010): (tropomyosin 1) This gene is a member of the tropomyosin family of highly conserved, widely distributed actin-binding proteins involved in the contractile system of striated and smooth muscles and the cytoskeleton of non-muscle cells. Tropomyosin is composed of two alpha-helical chains arranged as a coiled-coil. It is polymerized end to end along the two grooves of actin filaments and provides stability to the filaments. The encoded protein is one type of alpha helical chain that forms the predominant tropomyosin of striated muscle, where it also functions in association with the troponin complex to regulate the calcium-dependent interaction of actin and myosin during muscle contraction. In smooth muscle and non-muscle cells, alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding a range of isoforms have been described. Mutations in this gene are associated with type 3 familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy 1Y. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2022]

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The A63V likely pathogenic variant in the TPM1 gene has been reported in multiple individuals with HCM (Nakajima-Taniguchi et al., 1995; Yamauchi-Takihara et al., 1996; Lopes et al., 2015). Additionally, A63V is classified as a likely pathogenic variant by another clinical laboratory in ClinVar (SCV000285666.2; Landrum et al., 2016). The A63V variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). Although the A63V variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties, functional studies show that the A63V variant destabilizes the tropomyosin protein and results in muscle cell dysfunction (Michele et al., 2002; Heller et al., 2003; Hilario et al., 2004). -

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 3 Pathogenic:1

Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0105 - The mechanism of disease for this gene is not clearly established, although it has been suggested that that HCM is caused by gain of function missense variants while DCM is caused by loss of function missense variants (PMID: 31270709). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from alanine to valine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0502 - Missense variant with conflicting in silico predictions and uninformative conservation. (I) 0603 - Missense variant in a region that is highly intolerant to missense variation (high constraint region in DECIPHER). (SP) 0710 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. These alternative changes, p.(Ala63Pro) and p.(Ala63Thr), have been reported as VUS (ClinVar). (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as a VUS, but more commonly as likely pathogenic, and observed in at least eleven unrelated individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) (ClinVar, PMID: 24170035, PMID: 8523464, PMID: 8774330, PMID: 29398688, PMID: 30022097, PMID: 25351510). (SP) 0906 - Segregation evidence for this variant is inconclusive. This variant has segregated within a family with HCM (PMID: 24170035), but also observed in several unaffected relatives (personal communication). (I) 1002 - This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. This variant has been proven to result in reduced effectiveness in regulating ATPase activity and heat instability (PMID: 15479242). Additionally, when transfected into rat cardiac myocytes this variant resulted in slowed cell relengthening (PMID: 15059934). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 63 of the TPM1 protein (p.Ala63Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) (PMID: 8774330, 30022097; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 31877). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TPM1 function (PMID: 12006676, 12900417, 15059934, 15479242, 20161772). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: flagged submission

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.188C>T (p.A63V) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the TPM1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 188, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 63 to be replaced by a valine (V). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
