Genes affected
MYL2 (HGNC:7583): (myosin light chain 2) This gene encodes a major sarcomeric protein in mammalian striated muscle. The encoded protein plays a role in embryonic heart muscle structure and function, while phosphorylation of the encoded protein is involved in cardiac myosin cycling kinetics, torsion and function in adults. Mutations in this gene are associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 10 and infant-onset myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 10 Pathogenic:2Other:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 18 of the MYL2 protein (p.Phe18Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 9535554). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14068). 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 disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MYL2 function (PMID: 11102452, 12668451, 14594949, 25324513). This variant disrupts the Phe18 amino acid residue in MYL2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MYL2-related conditions (internal data), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

This missense variant replaces phenylalanine with leucine at codon 18 of the MYL2 protein. Computational prediction tools indicate that this variant has a deleterious impact on protein structure and function. Functional studies using in vitro assays of purified human MYL2 protein as well as rat myosin regulatory light chain have shown that this variant affects calcium sensitivity and reduces binding affinity, leading to impairment in cardiac contraction (PMID: 11102452, 12668451, 14594949). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 9535554, 12707239, 33495597). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in multiple affected individuals in one family (PMID: 9535554). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

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

Functional studies suggest that this variant results in a deleterious effect on the protein (PMID: 11102452, 14594949, 25324513, 12668451). This variant has been reported in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 9535554, 12707239, 33495597). This variant is absent from or rare in large population databases, including the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This variant has been reported to co-segregate with disease in 8 affected individuals in one family (PMID: 9535554). This variant is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. -

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

The p.F18L variant (also known as c.52T>C), located in coding exon 2 of the MYL2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 52. The phenylalanine at codon 18 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was identified in one or more individuals with features consistent with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and segregated with disease in at least one family (Flavigny J et al. J Mol Med. 1998;76(3-4):208-14; Richard P et al. Circulation. 2003;107(17):2227-32; Ambry internal data). Functional in vitro analyses indicate this variant disturbs Ca2+ sensitivity, thus reducing binding affinity and resulting in decreased cardiac contractile force and function (Szczesna D et al. J Biol Chem. 2001;276(10):7086-92; Roopnarine O. Biophys J. 2003;84(4):2440-9; Szczesna-Cordary D et al. J Biol Chem. 2004;279(5):3535-42; Farman GP et al. J Appl Physiol. 2014;117(12):1471-7). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
