Genes affected
TTR (HGNC:12405): (transthyretin) This gene encodes one of the three prealbumins, which include alpha-1-antitrypsin, transthyretin and orosomucoid. The encoded protein, transthyretin, is a homo-tetrameric carrier protein, which transports thyroid hormones in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. It is also involved in the transport of retinol (vitamin A) in the plasma by associating with retinol-binding protein. The protein may also be involved in other intracellular processes including proteolysis, nerve regeneration, autophagy and glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with amyloid deposition, predominantly affecting peripheral nerves or the heart, while a small percentage of the gene mutations are non-amyloidogenic. The mutations are implicated in the etiology of several diseases, including amyloidotic polyneuropathy, euthyroid hyperthyroxinaemia, amyloidotic vitreous opacities, cardiomyopathy, oculoleptomeningeal amyloidosis, meningocerebrovascular amyloidosis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Aug 06, 2017 | 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. It is not possible to discern whether this amino acid deletion affects codon 58 or 59 since the same sequence is present at both positions with two consecutive aspartic acid amino acids. A missense substitution at codon 59 (p.Asp59Ala) has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 25644864). This suggests that the asparagine residue is critical for TTR protein function and that other missense substitutions or deletions at this position may also be pathogenic. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the deleted amino acid is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TTR-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant, c.174_176delTGA, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid of the TTR protein (p.Asp59del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. - |
