Genes affected
MYLK (HGNC:7590): (myosin light chain kinase) This gene, a muscle member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily, encodes myosin light chain kinase which is a calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme. This kinase phosphorylates myosin regulatory light chains to facilitate myosin interaction with actin filaments to produce contractile activity. This gene encodes both smooth muscle and nonmuscle isoforms. In addition, using a separate promoter in an intron in the 3' region, it encodes telokin, a small protein identical in sequence to the C-terminus of myosin light chain kinase, that is independently expressed in smooth muscle and functions to stabilize unphosphorylated myosin filaments. A pseudogene is located on the p arm of chromosome 3. Four transcript variants that produce four isoforms of the calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme have been identified as well as two transcripts that produce two isoforms of telokin. Additional variants have been identified but lack full length transcripts. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 22, 2021Variant summary: MYLK c.5368+13_5368+21delTTCTCCAGC alters a nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0051 in 251332 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 8 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 102-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYLK causing Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms And Dissections phenotype (5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.5368+13_5368+21delTTCTCCAGC in individuals affected with Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms And Dissections and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
