Genes affected
TMEM43 (HGNC:28472): (transmembrane protein 43) This gene belongs to the TMEM43 family. Defects in this gene are the cause of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia type 5 (ARVD5), also known as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy type 5 (ARVC5). Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is an inherited disorder, often involving both ventricles, and is characterized by ventricular tachycardia, heart failure, sudden cardiac death, and fibrofatty replacement of cardiomyocytes. This gene contains a response element for PPAR gamma (an adipogenic transcription factor), which may explain the fibrofatty replacement of the myocardium, a characteristic pathological finding in ARVC.

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 5 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJun 07, 2022In 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: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 46149). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). This variant is present in population databases (rs397517385, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 174 of the TMEM43 protein (p.Ala174Thr). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthJan 03, 2024This missense variant replaces alanine with threonine at codon 174 of the TMEM43 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with TMEM43-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251474 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 01, 2012The Ala174Thr variant (TMEM43) has not been reported in the literature nor previ ously identified by our laboratory. It was absent from >3,000 European American individuals sequenced by the NHLBI exome sequencing project (http://evs.gs.washi ngton.edu/EVS). This low frequency is consistent with a disease causing role but insufficient to establish this with confidence. The amino acid alanine (Ala) at this position is highly conserved in evolutionarily distant species but additio nal computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, AlignGVGD, PolyPh en2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the pro tein of this change. In summary, additional information is needed to fully asses s the clinical significance of the Ala174Thr variant. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 09, 2014p.Ala174Thr (GCA>ACA): c.520 G>A in exon 7 of the TMEM43 gene (NM_024334.2). Although rare, mutations in the TMEM43 gene have been reported in association with ARVC (McNally E et al., 2009). A variant of unknown significance has been identified in the TMEM43 gene. The A174T variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The A174T variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The A174T variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. Additionally, this substitution occurs at a position that is conserved among mammals. However, in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Furthermore, missense mutations in nearby residues have not been reported, indicating this region of the protein may be tolerant of change. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in CARDIOMYOPATHY panel(s). -
