Genes affected

TTN (HGNC:12403): (titin) This gene encodes a large abundant protein of striated muscle. The product of this gene is divided into two regions, a N-terminal I-band and a C-terminal A-band. The I-band, which is the elastic part of the molecule, contains two regions of tandem immunoglobulin domains on either side of a PEVK region that is rich in proline, glutamate, valine and lysine. The A-band, which is thought to act as a protein-ruler, contains a mixture of immunoglobulin and fibronectin repeats, and possesses kinase activity. An N-terminal Z-disc region and a C-terminal M-line region bind to the Z-line and M-line of the sarcomere, respectively, so that a single titin molecule spans half the length of a sarcomere. Titin also contains binding sites for muscle associated proteins so it serves as an adhesion template for the assembly of contractile machinery in muscle cells. It has also been identified as a structural protein for chromosomes. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Considerable variability exists in the I-band, the M-line and the Z-disc regions of titin. Variability in the I-band region contributes to the differences in elasticity of different titin isoforms and, therefore, to the differences in elasticity of different muscle types. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 9, and autoantibodies to titin are produced in patients with the autoimmune disease scleroderma.

The heterozygous p.Lys12887AsnfsTer6 variant in TTN was identified by our study, in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic variant (ClinVar Variation ID: 1027852), in two siblings with congenital myopathy. Familial exome analysis showed that this variant was in trans with a pathogenic variant (ClinVar Variation ID: 1027852). The p.Lys12887AsnfsTer6 variant in TTN has been previously reported in one individual with autosomal recessive titin-associated myopathy (PMID: 28040389), but has been identified in 0.0008% (2/264690) of chromosomes in TopMed. Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 226126) and has been classified as likely pathogenic by NeuroMeGen,Hospital Clinico Santiago de Compostela. The one affected individual previously reported was homozygous for the variant (PMID: 28040389), which increases the likelihood that the p.Lys12887AsnfsTer6 variant is pathogenic. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 12887 and leads to a premature termination codon 6 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the TTN gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive titin-associated myopathy. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive titin-associated myopathy. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PM3_Supporting (Richards 2015). -
