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

Based on allele frequency, in-silico prediction scores and a certain overlap with the clinical phenotype, we interpreted this variant at least as of uncertain significance. The lack of one or more of the following features has discouraged further investigations: lack of a possible second hit in autosomal recessive conditions, presence of healthy controls in databases for autosomal dominant conditions, presence of unmatching cardinal clinical features in the patient or in the known gene-disease association, lack of segregation in the family, and/or variant type outside the known gene mutational spectrum. -

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

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 87 of the MYLK2 protein (p.Ala87Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908107, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 11733062). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4243). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MYLK2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: MYLK2 c.260C>T (p.Ala87Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 246866 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 approximately 17 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYLK2 causing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05).c.260C>T has been reported in the literature in two individuals from the same family, who were affected with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (Davies_2001), and in a later study in an individual with sudden unexplained death (Martinez-Matilla_2019). However, these reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. One of these publications reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and demonstrated increased V(max), however the variant protein tested in this study also carried another missense variant(s) in cis, therefore no conclusion can be made for the variant effect in isolation (Davies_2001). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11733062, 34426522, 31376648). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4243). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
