This mutation is denoted p.Gln998Stop (CAG>TAG): c.2992 C>T in exon 28 of the MYBPC3 gene (NM_000256.3). The Q998X mutation in the MYBPC3 gene has been reported in at least one patient with HCM (Millat G et al., 2010). Millat et al. (2010) report that the Q998X mutation was not seen in 200 control individuals. Furthermore, the Q998X mutation was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Additionally, Q998X is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other nonsense mutations in the MYBPC3 gene have been reported in association with HCM. In summary, Q998X in the MYBPC3 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in HCM panel(s). -
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln998*) in the MYBPC3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20624503). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 180993). Loss-of-function variants in MYBPC3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19574547). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
The p.Q998* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2992C>T), located in coding exon 28 of the MYBPC3 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2992. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 28. This alteration has been reported in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy cohorts and a sudden cardiac death cohort (Millat G et al. Eur J Med Genet, 2010 Jul;53:261-7; Helms AS et al. Circ Genom Precis Med, 2020 Oct;13:396-405; Guo L et al. JAMA Cardiol, 2021 Sep;6:1013-1022). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
