Genes affected
MYLK (HGNC:7590): (myosin light chain kinase) This gene, a muscle member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily, encodes myosin light chain kinase which is a calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme. This kinase phosphorylates myosin regulatory light chains to facilitate myosin interaction with actin filaments to produce contractile activity. This gene encodes both smooth muscle and nonmuscle isoforms. In addition, using a separate promoter in an intron in the 3' region, it encodes telokin, a small protein identical in sequence to the C-terminus of myosin light chain kinase, that is independently expressed in smooth muscle and functions to stabilize unphosphorylated myosin filaments. A pseudogene is located on the p arm of chromosome 3. Four transcript variants that produce four isoforms of the calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme have been identified as well as two transcripts that produce two isoforms of telokin. Additional variants have been identified but lack full length transcripts. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 7 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1301 of the MYLK protein (p.Arg1301Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs368321325, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MYLK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 539092). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MYLK protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne HospitalMar 30, 2023This sequence change is predicted to replace arginine with cysteine at codon 1301 of the MYLK protein (p.Arg1301Cys). The arginine residue is not conserved with cysteine present in multiple mammals (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the immunoglobulin I-set domain 8. There is a large physicochemical difference between arginine and cysteine. The variant is present in a large population cohort at a frequency of 0.006% (rs368321325, 16/282,670 alleles, 0 homozygotes in gnomAD v2.1), and has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (ClinVar ID: 539092). Multiple lines of computational evidence have conflicting predictions for the missense substitution (4/6 algorithms predict benign). Based on the classification scheme RMH ACMG Guidelines v1.2.1, this variant is classified as VARIANT OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE. No criteria are met. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 13, 2024Variant summary: MYLK c.3901C>T (p.Arg1301Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Immunoglobulin subtype 2 (IPR003598) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6e-05 in 251316 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 24 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYLK causing Aortopathy phenotype (2.5e-06). However, this data must be interpreted with caution as the sequencing techology utalized does not distinguish between this gene and highly homologous pseudogenes.To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3901C>T in individuals affected with Aortopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 539092). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 17, 2024The p.R1301C variant (also known as c.3901C>T), located in coding exon 20 of the MYLK gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3901. The arginine at codon 1301 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
