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.

Variant summary: The TTR c.210T>A (p.Ser70Arg) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. Ser70 is located in the Transthyretin/hydroxyisourate hydrolase, superfamily domain and p.Ser70Ile has been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory, indicateing Ser70 is critical for TTR function. 3/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent in 120430 control chromosomes. This variant has been reported in numerous ATTR patients. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 70 of the TTR protein (p.Ser70Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with transthyretin amyloidosis (PMID: 22745357, 22928869, 23317988, 23713495, 24053266). It is commonly reported in individuals of Mexico ancestry (PMID: 22745357, 22928869, 23317988, 23713495, 24053266). This variant is also known as in other populations (PMID: 22745357, 22928869, 23317988, 23713495, 24053266). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 36890). 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 expected to disrupt TTR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with autosomal dominant hereditary transthyretin-related amyloidosis. In some published literature, this variant is referred to as Ser50Arg. Polyphen and MutationTaster predict this amino acid change may be damaging to the protein. At least one other missense variant at this codon is considered to be pathogenic or likely pathogenic, suggesting this variant may also cause disease.

The p.S70R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.210T>A and S50R), located in coding exon 3 of the TTR gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 210. The serine at codon 70 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This mutation has been described in numerous unrelated families of Japanese, Caucasian, and Mexican ancestry with familial amyloid polyneuropathy (Ueno S et al. Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 1990 Jun;169(3):1117-21; Munar-Qués M et al. Amyloid 2007 Jun;14(2):147-52; González-Duarte A et al. Amyloid 2013 Dec;20(4):221-5). Of note, the nucleotide changes observed in these studies, which all result in the same p.S70R amino acid substitution, include c.210T>G, c.208A>C, and c.210T>A, respectively. In one Italian study, three of four individuals from two unrelated families with this mutation were observed to have a mixed neurologic and cardiac phenotype, while one individual had a primarily neurologic phenotype (Rapezzi C et al. Eur. Heart J. 2013 Feb; 34(7):520-8). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
