Dilated cardiomyopathy 1D;C1861864:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 2;C2676271:Cardiomyopathy, familial restrictive, 3 Uncertain:2
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"). 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). This variant is present in population databases (rs397516447, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). This variant is also known as A46P. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43612). Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on TNNT2 function (PMID: 30565988, 33025817). 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. -
The 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
The 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. -
Dilated cardiomyopathy 1D Uncertain:1

Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
This 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Identified in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in published literature (Walsh et al., 2017); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Published functional studies suggest normal protein function (Pettinato et al., 2020); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30645170, 30565988, 33025817, 27532257) -
Cardiomyopathy, familial restrictive, 3 Uncertain:1
- -
Primary familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Benign:1
- -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
