Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4BP6BS2
The NM_014000.3(VCL):c.1403C>T(p.Thr468Met) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000353 in 1,614,122 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T468A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1W Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 468 of the VCL protein (p.Thr468Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs147957747, gnomAD 0.04%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VCL-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 202159). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The p.T468M variant (also known as c.1403C>T), located in coding exon 11 of the VCL gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1403. The threonine at codon 468 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. The evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited; therefore, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -
not specified Benign:1
Variant summary: VCL c.1403C>T (p.Thr468Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251322 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in VCL causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1403C>T in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Both laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
