Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 17P and 1B. PS3PM1PM5PP2PP5_Very_StrongBS2_Supporting

The NM_000371.4(TTR):​c.238A>G​(p.Thr80Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000167 in 1,614,060 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000060026: "In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant impacts protein function." PMID:17503405" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T80I) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
TTR (HGNC:12405): (transthyretin) This gene encodes one of the three prealbumins, which include alpha-1-antitrypsin, transthyretin and orosomucoid. The encoded protein, transthyretin, is a homo-tetrameric carrier protein, which transports thyroid hormones in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. It is also involved in the transport of retinol (vitamin A) in the plasma by associating with retinol-binding protein. The protein may also be involved in other intracellular processes including proteolysis, nerve regeneration, autophagy and glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with amyloid deposition, predominantly affecting peripheral nerves or the heart, while a small percentage of the gene mutations are non-amyloidogenic. The mutations are implicated in the etiology of several diseases, including amyloidotic polyneuropathy, euthyroid hyperthyroxinaemia, amyloidotic vitreous opacities, cardiomyopathy, oculoleptomeningeal amyloidosis, meningocerebrovascular amyloidosis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000060026: "In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant impacts protein function." PMID:17503405; SCV000541954: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TTR function (PMID: 15820680).; SCV000209373: Functional studies demonstrate this variant induces conformational changes within the TTR monomers that result in the destablization of the native structure of these monomers compared to wildtype, leading to amyloidogenic potential (Altland et al., 2007; Cendron et al., 2009).; SCV001159944: However, functional analyses of the variant protein show a reduction in stability compared to the wild-type protein (Cendron 2009, Sekijima 2005).; SCV002737088: "In a functional study, the authors demonstrated that TTR monomers with this mutation are in an unfolded state 80% of the time in 2.5M urea (Altland K et al. Electrophoresis, 2007 Jun;28:2053-64). In addition, analysis of the crystallized structure showed that this mutation changes the conformation, suggesting that this mutation is destabilizing to the TTR protein structure (Cendron L et al. J. Biol. Chem., 2009 Sep;284:25832-41)."
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 32 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_000371.4
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr18-31595158-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 577420.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 108 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 3 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.0149 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.5458 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hereditary ATTR amyloidosis, heart conduction disease, familial amyloid neuropathy, ATTRV122I amyloidosis, amyloidosis, hereditary systemic 1.
PP5
Variant 18-31595157-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr18-31595157-A-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 13421.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 25 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
