Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:1
The E542X variant in the MYBPC3 gene has been reported previously in a cohort of HCM patients, however, no specific clinical details were provided (Lopes et al., 2015). E542X is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other nonsense variants in the MYBPC3 gene have been reported in Human Gene Mutation Database in association with HCM (Stenson et al., 2014). Moreover, the E542X variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). Finally, this variant was identified independently in a patient with HCM referred for genetic testing at GeneDx.In summary, E542X in the MYBPC3 gene is interpreted as a pathogenic variant. -
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430571). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25351510). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu542*) in the MYBPC3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MYBPC3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19574547). -
