Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000116.5(TAFAZZIN):c.307T>C(p.Cys103Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C103Y) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

TAFAZZIN (HGNC:11577): (tafazzin, phospholipid-lysophospholipid transacylase) This gene encodes a protein that is expressed at high levels in cardiac and skeletal muscle. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a number of clinical disorders including Barth syndrome, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), hypertrophic DCM, endocardial fibroelastosis, and left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. A long form and a short form of each of these isoforms is produced; the short form lacks a hydrophobic leader sequence and may exist as a cytoplasmic protein rather than being membrane-bound. Other alternatively spliced transcripts have been described but the full-length nature of all these transcripts is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_000116.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986
• PP5: Variant X-154413504-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-154413504-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 42256.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chrX-154413504-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The Cys103Arg variant in TAZ has not been reported in the literature but has bee n identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with suspected Barth syndrome and segregated in one affected relative. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that the Cys103Arg variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predict ive enough to determine pathogenicity. The presence of a TAZ variant is consiste nt with a clinical diagnosis of Barth syndrome and most TAZ variants are pathoge nic (www.barthsyndrome.org). In summary, this variant is likely to be pathogenic , though additional segregation studies and functional analyses are required to establish this with certainty. -
