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]

MHRT (HGNC:51291): (myosin heavy chain associated RNA transcript) This gene encodes a spliced long non-coding RNA that may act as a cardioprotective agent in the heart. Based on a study of a similar gene in mouse, the encoded transcript may regulate chromatin remodeling by acting as a decoy to the BRG1 chromatin repressor complex thus preventing it from binding to its genomic targets. Blocking the actions of BRG1 could be crucial in protecting the heart from pathological hypertrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the MYH7 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 341 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 16 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.9329 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.7889 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to hyaline body myopathy, MYH7-related skeletal myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy 1S, congenital myopathy 7A, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, dilated cardiomyopathy, left ventricular noncompaction, myopathy, myosin storage, autosomal dominant, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, Ebstein anomaly, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, myopathy, myosin storage, autosomal recessive, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 1, familial isolated dilated cardiomyopathy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.916

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The Thr1479Ile variant in MYH7 has been identified by our laboratory in two individuals with HC M and was not identified in large population studies. Threonine (Thr) at positio n 1491 is highly conserved in mammals and across evolutionarily distant species and the change to isoleucine (Ile) was predicted to be pathogenic using a comput ational tool, which was validated by our laboratory using a set of cardiomyopath y variants with well-established clinical significance. This tool's pathogenic p rediction is estimated to be correct 94% of the time (Jordan 2011). In addition , missense variants in MYH7 are often associated with HCM. In summary, although the data support that the Thr1479Ile variant may be pathogenic, additional stud ies are needed to fully assess its clinical significance. -

Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This missense variant replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 1479 of the MYH7 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may have deleterious impact on the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant is rare in the general population and has been identified in 0/277264 chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1479 of the MYH7 protein (p.Thr1479Ile). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43018). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYH7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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. -
