Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points: 0P and 13B. BP4_StrongBP6BS1BS2

The NM_001276345.2(TNNT2):​c.113C>T​(p.Ala38Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00057 in 1,613,840 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/23 in silico tools predict 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. A38T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
TNNT2 (HGNC:11949): (troponin T2, cardiac type) This gene encodes the cardiac isoform of troponin T. The encoded protein is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as well as with dilated cardiomyopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

p.Ala28Val in exon 5 of TNNT2: This variant is classified as benign because it h as been identified in 0.07% (84/126672) of European chromosomes by the Genome Ag gregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs200754249) . Furthermore, alanine (Ala) at position 28 is not conserved in mammals or evolu tionarily distant species and >10 mammals carry a valine (Val) at this position, supporting that this change may be tolerated.

Variant summary: TNNT2 c.83C>T (p.Ala28Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00045 in 256592 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TNNT2 causing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.00025). c.83C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Dilated Cardiomyopathy without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Morita_2006, Curlia_2009, Milat_2011, Rani_2011, Bick_2012, Curlia_2012, Pugh_2014, Sousa_2019, De Bortoli_2020, Sepp_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. Additionally, an internal sample also carried a pathogenic variant in MYBPC3 c.2308G>A/p.D770N and the variant was found not to segregate with disease in several affected individuals in a family with HCM (De Bortoli_2020), further supporting the non-pathogenicity of this variant. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (Pettinato_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16754800, 33025817, 22017532, 23233322, 35626289, 22958901, 22455086, 19645627, 21846512, 24055113, 24503780, 25637381, 30871747, 32004434). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43675). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

This 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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
