Genes affected

TTN (HGNC:12403): (titin) This gene encodes a large abundant protein of striated muscle. The product of this gene is divided into two regions, a N-terminal I-band and a C-terminal A-band. The I-band, which is the elastic part of the molecule, contains two regions of tandem immunoglobulin domains on either side of a PEVK region that is rich in proline, glutamate, valine and lysine. The A-band, which is thought to act as a protein-ruler, contains a mixture of immunoglobulin and fibronectin repeats, and possesses kinase activity. An N-terminal Z-disc region and a C-terminal M-line region bind to the Z-line and M-line of the sarcomere, respectively, so that a single titin molecule spans half the length of a sarcomere. Titin also contains binding sites for muscle associated proteins so it serves as an adhesion template for the assembly of contractile machinery in muscle cells. It has also been identified as a structural protein for chromosomes. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. Considerable variability exists in the I-band, the M-line and the Z-disc regions of titin. Variability in the I-band region contributes to the differences in elasticity of different titin isoforms and, therefore, to the differences in elasticity of different muscle types. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 9, and autoantibodies to titin are produced in patients with the autoimmune disease scleroderma.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	3billion	Feb 23, 2023	The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). This variant was predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000047301 / PMID: 26735901). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Primary dilated cardiomyopathy

Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	Jul 16, 2019	The p.Arg21300X variant in TTN has been identified by our laboratory in 2 adults with DCM. In one family, it segregated with disease in 7 affected relatives (including 3 obligate carriers). This variant has also been identified in 0.001% (1/112282) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 47301). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 21300, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Nonsense and other truncating variants in TTN are strongly associated with DCM, particularly if they are located in the exons encoding for the A-band region of the protein (Herman 2012, Pugh 2014), where this variant is located. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for DCM in an autosomal dominant manner based on segregation studies and the predicted effect of this variant on the protein.

The TTN c.71602C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg23868*). This variant has been reported in numerous individuals with cardiomyopathies (Supp. Table 2, Jansen et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31112426; Table S2, Goli. 2021. PubMed ID: 33874732; Table IV, Bourfiss. 2022. PubMed ID: 36264615; Table S1, Ware. 2016. PubMed ID: 26735901). This variant is located in the A-band region of the protein in which truncating TTN variants have been found more frequently in dilated cardiomyopathy patients than in controls (Herman et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22335739). RNAseq studies from heart tissue indicate this exon is commonly included in TTN mRNA transcripts (PSI of 95-100%) (Roberts et al. 2015. PMID: 25589632; https://cardiodb.org/titin/titin_transcripts.php). This variant is reported in 0.00089% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in TTN are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg23868*) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs397517689, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy and/or peripartum cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26735901, 28416588; Invitae). This variant is also known as chr2:179439257G>A and c.44407C>T (p.Arg14803*). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 47301). This variant is located in the A band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region are significantly overrepresented in patients affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.71602C>T p.(Arg23868Ter) stop-gain variant identified in the TTN gene has been previously reported in individuals with titinopathies [PMID: 31514951, 26735901, 28416588, 29447731], and has been deposited in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic by multiple laboratories [ClinVar ID: 47301]. The c.71602C>T variant is present as a single heterozygous allele in population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2, TOPMed Freeze 8), suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in those databases. The c.71602C>T variant is located in exon 326 (A band) of this 363-exon gene, is predicted to incorporate a premature translation termination codon [p.(Arg23868Ter)], and is expected to result in loss-of-function through protein truncation or nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Truncating variants in this region are significantly overrepresented in patients affected with dilated cardiomyopathy [PMID: 25589632]. Based on available evidence, this c.71602C>T p.(Arg23868Ter) variant identified in TTN is classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.R14803* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.44407C>T), located in coding exon 153 of the TTN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 44407. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 153. This exon is located in the A-band region of the N2-B isoform of the titin protein and is constitutively expressed in TTN transcripts (percent spliced in or PSI 100%). This variant (also referred to as p.R23868* and p.R14995*) has been identified in individuals from peripartum cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and noncompaction cardiomyopathy cohorts (Ware JS et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2016 Jan;374:233-41; Dal Ferro M et al. Heart, 2017 11;103:1704-1710; Miszalski-Jamka K et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet. 2017 Aug;10(4); van Waning JI et al. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2018 Feb;71(7):711-722; Jansen M et al. Circ Genom Precis Med. 2019 May;12(5):e002436). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. While truncating variants in TTN are present in 1-3% of the general population, truncating variants in the A-band are the most common cause of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (Herman DS et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2012 Feb;366:619-28; Roberts AM et al. Sci Transl Med, 2015 Jan;7:270ra6). TTN truncating variants encoded in constitutive exons (PSI >90%) have been found to be significantly associated with DCM regardless of their position in titin (Schafer S et al. Nat. Genet., 2017 01;49:46-53). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
