Genes affected
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.

TTN-AS1 (HGNC:44124): (TTN antisense RNA 1) This gene encodes a non-coding RNA transcribed from the opposite strand to the titin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

Variant summary: TTN c.12814G>T (p.Asp4272Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the I-band domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00053 in 248410 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00093 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2 fold of 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 Non-Finnish European origin. c.12814G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy, wihtout strong evidence for causality (Chami_2014, Campuzano_2015, Kostareva_2016). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Dilated Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27662471, 26516846, 25448463). 15 submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified this variant as uncertain significance (n=8), likely benign (n=5) and benign (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Asp4272Tyr va riant in TTN has been identified by our laboratory in 2 adults with DCM, one of whom carried another pathogenic variant in TTN. This variant has been identified in 0.1% (11/8216) of European American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencin g Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs72648940). Computational p rediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or a gainst an impact to the protein. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Asp4272Tyr variant is uncertain, its frequency suggests that it is more li kely to be benign. -

The TTN c.12814G>T; p.Asp4272Tyr variant (rs72648940; ClinVar Variation ID: 46618) is rare in the general population (<1% allele frequency in the Genome Aggregation Database) and has not been reported in the medical literature in association with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or other TTN-related disease. The clinical relevance of rare missense variants in this gene, which are identified on average once per individual sequenced in affected populations (Herman 2012), is not well understood. Yet, evidence suggests that the vast majority of such missense variants do not contribute to the clinical outcome of DCM (Begay 2015). Thus, the clinical significance of the p.Asp4272Tyr variant cannot be determined with certainty. References: Begay RL et al. Role of Titin Missense Variants in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

The TTN c.16546G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp5516Tyr. This variant was reported in individuals with restrictive cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, or dilated cardiomyopathy; however, no additional studies were performed to help assess the pathogenicity of this variant (Table S5, Chami et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25448463; described as c.12814G>T (p.Asp4272Tyr) with an alternate transcript NM_133378 in Table S1, Campuzano et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26516846; Table S3, Kostareva et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27662471). This variant is reported in 0.091% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-179597242-C-A) and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from benign to uncertain (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/46618). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
