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 c.11065_11068dupAGTG variant of uncertain significance in the TTN gene (also reported as c.12016_12019dupAGTG in transcript NM_001267550.1) has been identified previously in two related individuals with DCM (Jansweijer et al., 2017). This variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The c.11065_11068dupAGTG variant causes a shift in reading frame starting at codon glycine 3690, changing it to a glutamic acid, and creating a premature stop codon at position 7 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gly3690GlufsX7. This variant is expected to result in either an abnormal, truncated protein product or loss of protein from this allele through nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Nevertheless, other truncating TTN variants have been reported in approximately 3% of control alleles, and the c.11065_11068dupAGTG variant is not located in the A-band region of titin, where the majority of truncating pathogenic variants associated with DCM have been reported (Herman et al., 2012). -

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 503826). 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. This variant is located in the I band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have been shown to be highly prevalent in the general population and unaffected individuals (PMID: 26701604, 22335739). However, truncating variants in this region have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27813223, 31112426). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly4007Glufs*7) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. -
