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]

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 02, 2021This sequence change replaces methionine with leucine at codon 439 of the MYH7 protein (p.Met439Leu). The methionine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between methionine and leucine. This variant is present in population databases (rs370310929, ExAC 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 177948). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. This variant is found within a region of MYH7 between codons 181 and 937 that contains the majority of the myosin head domain. Missense variants in this region have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). 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. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJul 15, 2019The Met439Leu variant has not been reported in the literature. Methionine (Met) at position 439 is highly conserved across several evolutionary distant species. In addition, this variant was predicted to be pathogenic using a novel computational tool (a customized sarcomere-specific PolyPhen tool, which was validated using a set of cardiomyopathy variants with well-established clinical significance). This tool's pathogenic prediction is estimated to be correct 94% of the time, which suggests but does not prove that this variant is pathogenic. Finally, this individual's racial origin is reported to be Caucasian and the Met439Leu variant has not been identified in over 1675 Caucasian probands (3350 chromosomes) tested by our laboratory. Although we cannot exclude the possibility that this variant could be benign, this low frequency, high conservation and computational prediction together increase the likelihood that it is pathogenic. -
