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]

The observed missense variant c.446G>A(p.Arg149His) in TNNT2 gene has been reported previously in heterozygous state in individuals with cardiomyopathies (Millat G, et al., 2014, Morales A, et al., 2010). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TNNT2 function (Morales A, et al., 2010). The c.446G>A variant is reported with 0.0004% allele frequency in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic/Uncertain Significance. The variant is predicted to be damaging by SIFT. The amino acid Arginine at position 149 is changed to a Histidine changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The amino acid change p.Arg149His in TNNT2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg139His variant in TNNT2 has been reported in at least 8 individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), including 2 infants, and segregated with disease in at least 8 affected relatives from 2 families. However, this variant has also been found in unaffected relatives (in some individuals in their 50s) and in unaffected parents of infants with DCM (Morales 2010 PMID: 20973921, Millat 2014 PMID: 24721642, Li 2020 PMID: 31521807, Hey 2020 PMID: 33019804, Verdonschot 2020 PMID: 32880476, Ware 2021 PMID: 33906374, LMM data). This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 43642) and has been identified in 0.00088% (1/113310) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant impacts protein function (Morales 2010 PMID: 20973921), and computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein. Another variant involving this codon (p.Arg139Cys) has been identified in individuals with DCM. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant DCM.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 139 of the TNNT2 protein (p.Arg139His). This variant is present in population databases (rs397516466, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20973921, 27532257; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43642). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TNNT2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TNNT2 function (PMID: 20973921). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: TNNT2 c.416G>A (p.Arg139His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 244976 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.416G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy (Morales_2010, Pugh_2014, Walsh_2017). The initial publication by Morales et al (2010), reported the presence of this variant in cis with another intronic TNNT2 variant (c.690-6G>A) that the authors considered to be of unknown significance. However the estimated penetrance of Cardiomyopathy (0.33) due to this variant appears to be lower than expected (0.4), as the variant was also identified in the unaffected offspring of the proband with the same TNNT2 genotype (Morales_2010). Therefore, no conclusions can be drawn from these data. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in >50%-90% of normal activity in measures of maximal force of recovery in addition to desensitization of myofilaments to calcium at pH 6.5. However, the authors conclude that a 20% reduction in maximal force recovery represents a significant finding sufficient to explain the pathophysiology of late onset DCM brought on by fatty inflitration of the right ventricle (Morales_2010). Additional independent confirmation of these functional findings is awaited. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as likely pathogenic, and one laboratory classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
