Genes affected
MYLK (HGNC:7590): (myosin light chain kinase) This gene, a muscle member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily, encodes myosin light chain kinase which is a calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme. This kinase phosphorylates myosin regulatory light chains to facilitate myosin interaction with actin filaments to produce contractile activity. This gene encodes both smooth muscle and nonmuscle isoforms. In addition, using a separate promoter in an intron in the 3' region, it encodes telokin, a small protein identical in sequence to the C-terminus of myosin light chain kinase, that is independently expressed in smooth muscle and functions to stabilize unphosphorylated myosin filaments. A pseudogene is located on the p arm of chromosome 3. Four transcript variants that produce four isoforms of the calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme have been identified as well as two transcripts that produce two isoforms of telokin. Additional variants have been identified but lack full length transcripts. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The MYLK c.3843C>T; p.Ser1281Ser variant (rs377231739), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 241760). This variant is found in the African population with an allele frequency of 0.03% (8/ 24948 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This is a synonymous variant in a weakly conserved nucleotide, but computational analyses (Alamut v.2.11) predict that this variant may impact splicing by creating a novel cryptic donor splice site/weakening the nearby canonical splice site. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Ser1281Ser variant is uncertain at this time. -

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

The MYLK c.3843C>T variant is not predicted to result in an amino acid change (p.=). This variant is predicted to create a novel cryptic donor splice site, based on available splicing prediction programs (Alamut Visual v2.11). However, such computer prediction programs are imperfect. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.032% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/3-123383094-G-A) and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from uncertain significance to likely benign (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/241760/). 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. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
