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.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 09, 2023Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Published functional studies showed that although mutant protein could be distinguished from wild type protein, it showed no change in conformational stability compared to wild type (Altland et al., 2007); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31371117, 1786038, 8038017, 14640031, 21540676, 22745357, 23713495, 26428663, 26537620, 28635949, 30638075, 31589614, 36444226, 17503405, 24767411, 18544157, 34746851, 30070416, 24184229, 34622675, 30683924, 33844361, 28188196, 34658264, 34828392, 34047656, 35717381, 28494620) -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMay 14, 2021The TTR c.262A>T; p.Ile88Leu variant (rs121918085), also known as p.Ile88Leu, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (Damy 2016, Ihse 2013, Iorio 2017, Mauzrizi 2020) and segregated with disease in at least one family (Rapezzi 2013). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 13446). This variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.0018% (5/129164 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The isoleucine at codon 88 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.554). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Damy T et al.

Amyloidosis, hereditary systemic 1 Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 17, 2023This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 88 of the TTR protein (p.Ile88Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918085, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis) (PMID: 1786038, 22745357, 26428663, 26537620). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13446). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae 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. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJul 27, 2020The p.Ile88Leu variant in TTR (also described as p.Ile68Leu in the literature) has been identified in >20 individuals with clinical features of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR; Almeida 1991 PMID: 1786038, Hesse 1993 PMID: 8038017, Salvi 2003 PMID: 14640031, Perfetto 2011 PMID: 21540676, Ihse 2013 PMID: 23713495, Rapezzi 2013 PMID: 22745357, Cappelli 2016 PMID: 26428663, Damy 2016 PMID: 26537620, Iorio 2017 PMID: 28635949, Maurizi 2020 PMID: 31371117) and segregated with disease in at least 5 individuals from at least one family (Rapezzi 2013 PMID: 22745357). Clinical features in affected individuals included a mostly cardiac amyloidosis phenotype, with some neurologic and mixed cardiac/neurologic phenotypes. This variant has also been reported by another clinical laboratory in ClinVar (Variation ID 13446) and has been identified in 0.004% (5/129164) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Results from an in vitro functional study using electrophoretic analyses to assess the role of this variant show that while variant p.Ile88Leu TTR monomer could be clearly distinguished from its wild type counterpart, it did not result in a reduced conformational stability of both TTR monomers and tetramers (Altland 2007 PMID: 17503405). Therefore, the clinical significance of these results is uncertain. Additionally, 7 mammals (squirrel, antelope, cow, goat, sheep, Tasmanian devil, opossum) carry a Leucine (Leu) at this position with moderate nearby amino acid conservation and additional computational tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant ATTR based upon presence in multiple affected individuals and segregation studies.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 14, 2023The p.I88L pathogenic mutation (also known as c.262A>T and I68L), located in coding exon 3 of the TTR gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 262. The isoleucine at codon 88 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This pathogenic mutation was first described in a German male with cardiac amyloidosis and dysaesthesia in both hands (Almeida MR et al. Basic Res Cardiol. 1991; 86(6):567-71). A large multicenter study in the Italian population found this pathogenic mutation to be the third most common TTR mutation, and the most common TTR mutation with a predominantly cardiac phenotype; it was identified in 27 individuals from 22 families, 23 of whom had a predominantly cardiac phenotype, 3 of whom had a predominantly neurologic phenotype, and 1 of whom had a mixed phenotype (Rapezzi C et al. Eur Heart J. 2013; 34(7):520-8). One functional study showed this mutation has minimal effect to the stability of the protein structure; however, this analysis does not capture how mutations in TTR result in pathology (Atland K et al. Electrophoresis 2007 Jun;28(12):2053-64). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
