The NM_001267550.2(TTN):c.59113C>T(p.Arg19705Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000214 in 1,613,342 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R19705H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
TTN (HGNC:12403): (titin) This gene encodes a large abundant protein of striated muscle. The product of this gene is divided into two regions, a N-terminal I-band and a C-terminal A-band. The I-band, which is the elastic part of the molecule, contains two regions of tandem immunoglobulin domains on either side of a PEVK region that is rich in proline, glutamate, valine and lysine. The A-band, which is thought to act as a protein-ruler, contains a mixture of immunoglobulin and fibronectin repeats, and possesses kinase activity. An N-terminal Z-disc region and a C-terminal M-line region bind to the Z-line and M-line of the sarcomere, respectively, so that a single titin molecule spans half the length of a sarcomere. Titin also contains binding sites for muscle associated proteins so it serves as an adhesion template for the assembly of contractile machinery in muscle cells. It has also been identified as a structural protein for chromosomes. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Considerable variability exists in the I-band, the M-line and the Z-disc regions of titin. Variability in the I-band region contributes to the differences in elasticity of different titin isoforms and, therefore, to the differences in elasticity of different muscle types. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 9, and autoantibodies to titin are produced in patients with the autoimmune disease scleroderma.

Variant summary: TTN c.51409C>T (p.Arg17137Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the A-band region of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00024 in 248286 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00044 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is slightly higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TTN causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.00039), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Latino origin. c.51409C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with different Cardiomyopathies (Begay_2015, Klauke_2017). In a family reported by Klauke_2017, two sisters with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy were genotyped; one sister carried this variant and the other sister carried the reference allele, showing the variant did not segregate with the disease phenotype. These siblings also carried other pathogenic variants (PLN c.40_42delAGA, p.Arg14del) which segregated with disease, providing supporting evidence for a benign role of TTN c.51409C>T. An undisclosed pathogenic co-occurence was also reported by ClinVar submitter "Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Partners HealthCare Personalized Medicine" (Accession: SCV000064107.7). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: five classified the variant as of uncertain significance and two as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

The p.Arg17137Cys variant in TTN has been identified by our laboratory in 1 African American individual with RCM and a dilated left atrium who also carried a pathogenic variant in another gene that most likely explained their disease. This variant has also been identified in 0.04% (15/35302) of Latino chromosomes by the gnomAD (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg17137Cys variant is uncertain. -

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. -
