Genes affected

ACTC1 (HGNC:143): (actin alpha cardiac muscle 1) Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility. Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin) in the form of a two-stranded helix. Each actin can bind to four others. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the actin family which is comprised of three main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta, and gamma. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. Defects in this gene have been associated with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) and familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (FHC). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

GJD2-DT (HGNC:55560): (GJD2 divergent transcript)

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.25).

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 5 of the ACTC1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the ACTC1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ACTC1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 45189). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: research

The ACTC1 c.803+3G>A has been previously identified by one laboratory in a HCM proband and one other affected family member (LMM, Pers. Comm.). We identified this variant in a HCM proband of Lebanese ethnicity with atypical concentric hypertrophy. The variant is absent in the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/), as well as the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico tool MaxEntScan predicts that this variant will not affect splicing. In summary, although the variant is rare in the general population, the splicing prediction tool predicts that the variant will not affect splicing and there is no other informative evidence to confirm the pathogenicity of the variant, therefore we classify ACTC1 c.803+3G>A as a variant of 'uncertain significance'. -

The c.808+3G>A intronic alteration consists of a G to A substitution nucleotides after coding exon 4 in the ACTC1 gene. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
