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.

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 31, 2020The p.A129V variant (also known as c.386C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the TTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 386. The alanine at codon 129 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. Of note, this alteration is also designated as p.A109T in the published literature. This variant has been detected in individuals presenting with euthyroid hyperthyroxinemia, rather than transthyretin amyloidosis (Saraiva MJ. Hum. Mutat., 2001 Jun;17:493-503). Other alterations in this same codon, have been reported in individuals presenting with a transthyretin amyloidosis phenotype (p.A129S, p.A129T) (Date Y et al. J. Neurol. Sci., 1997 Sep;150:143-8; Iorio A et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2017 09;25:1055-1060), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (p.A129T) (Walsh R et al. Genet. Med., 2017 02;19:192-203), as well as euthyroid hyperthyroxinemia (p.A129T) (Moses AC et al. J. Clin. Invest., 1990 Dec;86:2025-33). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration with respect to transthyretin amyloidosis remains unclear. -
Familial amyloid neuropathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 08, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 129 of the TTR protein (p.Ala129Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918092, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of TTR-related conditions including euthyroid hyperthyroxinemia (PMID: 8784093, 28798025, 30847666). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13454). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect TTR function (PMID: 8784093, 35903975). This variant disrupts the p.Ala129 amino acid residue in TTR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9268242; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -
