Genes affected
TPM3 (HGNC:12012): (tropomyosin 3) This gene encodes a member of the tropomyosin family of actin-binding proteins. Tropomyosins are dimers of coiled-coil proteins that provide stability to actin filaments and regulate access of other actin-binding proteins. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal dominant nemaline myopathy and other muscle disorders. This locus is involved in translocations with other loci, including anaplastic lymphoma receptor tyrosine kinase (ALK) and neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 1 (NTRK1), which result in the formation of fusion proteins that act as oncogenes. There are numerous pseudogenes for this gene on different chromosomes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Congenital myopathy with fiber type disproportion;C5829889:Congenital myopathy 4B, autosomal recessive Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 12, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 168 of the TPM3 protein (p.Arg168His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg168 amino acid residue in TPM3. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24095155, 24692096). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TPM3 function (PMID: 21357678, 22749829, 22798622, 23886664). 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 not expected to disrupt TPM3 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12450). This variant is also known as p.Arg167His. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant nemaline myopathy, cap myopathy, congenital myopathy, and congenital fiber type disproportion (PMID: 12467750, 17376686, 19553118, 21357678, 24507666, 24692096). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. -
