Genes affected
MYBPC3 (HGNC:7551): (myosin binding protein C3) MYBPC3 encodes the cardiac isoform of myosin-binding protein C. Myosin-binding protein C is a myosin-associated protein found in the cross-bridge-bearing zone (C region) of A bands in striated muscle. MYBPC3 is expressed exclusively in heart muscle and is a key regulator of cardiac contraction. Mutations in this gene are a frequent cause of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 14 of the MYBPC3 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MYBPC3 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs397515892, gnomAD 0.04%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 30871747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 42512). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant does not affect mRNA splicing (PMID: 28679633). 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant causes a T>C nucleotide substitution at the +6 position of intron 14 of the MYBPC3 gene. Splice site prediction tools and conservation analysis are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 30871747, 31179125) and in a case of sudden cardiac death (PMID: 36293497). This variant has been identified in 23/241524 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: MYBPC3 c.1226+6T>C alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Two predict the variant no significant impact on splicing. Two predict the variant weakens a 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0001 in 210138 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 3 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYBPC3 causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy phenotype (3.1e-05). c.1226+6T>C has been observed in individuals affected with left ventricular noncompaction or sudden unexplained death (Ito_2017, Coll_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Dilated Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36293497, 28679633, 31179125). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 42512). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
