Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3PP5
The NM_003673.4(TCAP):c.472C>A(p.Arg158Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000207 in 1,449,934 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic 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. R158C) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with clinical features of autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy. Computational tools yielded predictions that this variant may result in the gain of a cryptic splice site without affecting the natural splice sites. Polyphen and MutationTaster yielded discordant predictions regarding whether this amino acid change is damaging to the protein. -
Reported in several individuals with DCM or referred for DCM genetic testing (PMID: 26084686, 27532257, Cuesta-Llavona et al., 2022; 24503780); at least one individual harbored an additional variant that was thought to contribute to the phenotype (PMID: 24503780); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (HGMD); 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: 24503780, 27532257, Cuesta-Llavona_2022_Cardiogenetics, 16490376, 26084686) -

Cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: TCAP c.472C>A (p.Arg158Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Telethonin protein (IPR015667) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 241542 control chromosomes. c.472C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy (Pugh_2014, Akinrinade_2015, Walsh_2017, Invitae) and segregates with disease. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported.The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24503780, 26084686, 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 44711). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 158 of the TCAP protein (p.Arg158Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26084686, 27532257; internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 44711). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This variant disrupts the p.Arg158 amino acid residue in TCAP. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with TCAP-related conditions (PMID: 24037902; internal data), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
The Arg158Ser variant in TCAP has not been reported in the literature. It has be en identified by our laboratory in 2 individuals with DCM, one of whom carried a second, likely pathogenic variant. Computational analyses (biochemical amino ac id properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that this v ariant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clinical significance of this variant. -
