Genes affected
MYBPC3 (HGNC:7551): (myosin binding protein C3) MYBPC3 encodes the cardiac isoform of myosin-binding protein C. Myosin-binding protein C is a myosin-associated protein found in the cross-bridge-bearing zone (C region) of A bands in striated muscle. MYBPC3 is expressed exclusively in heart muscle and is a key regulator of cardiac contraction. Mutations in this gene are a frequent cause of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 18, 2016This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 10, 2018Variant summary: MYBPC3 c.478C>T (p.Arg160Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in one of the Immunoglobulin-like domains (IPR007110) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0014 in 200008 control chromosomes, predominantly within the Latino subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0099 in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 10-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYBPC3 causing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.001), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Latino origin. The variant, c.478C>T, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, however these data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. Moreover, co-occurrences with other pathogenic MYBPC3 variants have been reported (e.g. Zou2013: c.2308+1G>C and c.3137delC (T1046fs); Fourey 2017: c.109G>T (p.Gly37ter)), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. In one HCM family lack of co-segregation with the disease was also reported (Kadota 2015). One functional study reported that the variant does not cause aberrant splicing (Ito 2017). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (benign x4, likely benign x2, VUS x1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 01, 2014The Arg160Trp variant has been identified in one Japanese proband with late-onse t sporadic HCM and was absent from 200 control chromosomes (Anan 2007). However, the variant has now been identified by our laboratory in 8 individuals (4 DCM, HCM) 4 of whom (1 DCM, 3 HCM) carried a second variant which could be responsibl e for disease. Because HCM and DCM are caused by different defects at the cellul ar level, it is currently believed that the same variant is unlikely to cause bo th cardiomyopathies. In addition, at least 3/8 probands are of minority races (2 Hispanic, 1 Asian, 3 unspecified, 2 white) suggesting this variant may be a ben ign variant more common to a racial subpopulation. In summary, the occurrence of the Arg160Trp variant in HCM as well as DCM probands, its frequent presence wit h additional variants, and identification in minority races argues against a hig hly penetrant pathogenic role. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaMar 26, 2018This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
