Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_001276345.2(TNNT2):c.445C>T(p.Arg149Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000274 in 1,460,876 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/23 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R149H) has been classified as Pathogenic.

The c.415C>T (p.R139C) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 9) of the TNNT2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 415, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 139 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

not provided Pathogenic:1
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27532257, 25448463, 24503780, 31983221, 32746448, 37652022) -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Arg139Cys variant in TNNT2 has been identified by our laboratory in 1 African infant with DCM and segregated with disease in 2 affected relatives (a parent and sibling). This variant was absent from large population studies. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protei n, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical si gnificance of the p.Arg139Cys variant is uncertain. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 139 of the TNNT2 protein (p.Arg139Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25448463, 27532257, 31983221, 32746448, 37652022). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43640). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on TNNT2 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg139 amino acid residue in TNNT2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 20973921, 27532257; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -
