Genes affected
ACTN2 (HGNC:164): (actinin alpha 2) Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a muscle-specific, alpha actinin isoform that is expressed in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

The Val115Met variant in ACTN2 has been reported in 1 individual with dilated ca rdiomyopathy (Zimmerman 2010), and was not identified in large population studie s . Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide stro ng support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical sig nificance of the Val115Met variant is uncertain. -

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. 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: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43936). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20474083). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces valine with methionine at codon 115 of the ACTN2 protein (p.Val115Met). The valine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and methionine. -

The c.343G>A (p.V115M) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the ACTN2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 343, causing the valine (V) at amino acid position 115 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
