Genes affected
TNNT2 (HGNC:11949): (troponin T2, cardiac type) This gene encodes the cardiac isoform of troponin T. The encoded protein is the tropomyosin-binding subunit of the troponin complex, which is located on the thin filament of striated muscles and regulates muscle contraction in response to alterations in intracellular calcium ion concentration. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as well as with dilated cardiomyopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1D;C1861864:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 2;C2676271:Cardiomyopathy, familial restrictive, 3 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 08, 2022In 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. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on TNNT2 function (PMID: 30565988, 33025817). 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: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Not Available"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43612). This variant is also known as A46P. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). This variant is present in population databases (rs397516447, gnomAD 0.03%). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 36 of the TNNT2 protein (p.Ala36Pro). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterAug 20, 2021The c.136G>C (p.Ala46Pro) variant identified in the TNNT2 gene substitutes a moderately conserved Alanine for Proline at amino acid 46/299 (exon6/17). This variant is found with low frequency in gnomAD(v3.1.1) (6 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes; allele frequency:3.94e-5) suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. In silico algorithms predict this variant to be Tolerated (SIFT; score:0.298) and Benign (REVEL; score:0.423) to the function of the canonical transcript. This variant is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance in ClinVar (VarID:43612) and has been reported in an individual in the literature with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (listed as c.106G>C, p.Ala36Pro as annotated from transcript NM_001001430.2; [Supp Table S1B,PMID:27532257]). This variant is not within a mapped domain of TNNT2, but is located within a region of compositional bias of acid residues (UniProtKB:P45379). The c.136G>C (p.Ala46Pro) variant identified in the TNNT2 gene is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 10, 2011The Ala36Pro variant has not been reported in the literature. It has been detec ted by our laboratory in one Asian patient with HCM secondary to Pompe disease. It should be noted that this lab has only sequenced the TNNT2 in 162 Asian indi viduals and no Asian healthy controls. In addition, healthy control information is unavailable from either public databases or scientific literature, such that the full spectrum of benign variation has not yet been defined for this populati on. Future analysis could reveal that the Ala36Pro variant is common and therefo re unlikely to be pathogenic. In addition, alanine (Ala) at position 36 is locat ed in a less well conserved part of the TNNT2 protein, which may indicate that a change would be tolerated. In summary, the clinical significance of this varia nt cannot be determined without further studies. -

Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 02, 2023This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 36 of the TNNT2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). A functional study showed similar transcript expression as WT controls (PMID: 33025817). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). This variant has been identified in 8/251454 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. -
