Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The filtering allele frequency of the c.189C>T (p.Thr63=) variant in the MYH7 gene is 61.57% (6532/10394) of African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (http://exac.broadinstitute.org), which is a high enough frequency to be classified as benign based on thresholds defined by the ClinGen Inherited Cardiomyopathy Expert Panel (BA1; PMID:29300372).

Genes affected
MYH7 (HGNC:7577): (myosin heavy chain 7) Muscle myosin is a hexameric protein containing 2 heavy chain subunits, 2 alkali light chain subunits, and 2 regulatory light chain subunits. This gene encodes the beta (or slow) heavy chain subunit of cardiac myosin. It is expressed predominantly in normal human ventricle. It is also expressed in skeletal muscle tissues rich in slow-twitch type I muscle fibers. Changes in the relative abundance of this protein and the alpha (or fast) heavy subunit of cardiac myosin correlate with the contractile velocity of cardiac muscle. Its expression is also altered during thyroid hormone depletion and hemodynamic overloading. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myosin storage myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and Laing distal myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

13 reputable source/s reports the variant as benign, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation. Allele frequency is common in at least one population database (frequency: 62.844% in ExAC) based on the frequency threshold of 0.637% for this gene. Variant was observed in a homozygous state in population databases more than expected for disease. A synonymous variant not located in a splice region. -
