Variant summary: TNNT2 c.662T>C (p.Ile221Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 251490 control chromosomes, predominantly within the Latino- and North-western European subpopulations, at a frequency of 0.00029 and 0.00031 (respectively) in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within these subpopulations is approximately 2-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TNNT2 causing cardiomyopathy (0.00018), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism. c.662T>C has been reported in the literature, primarily in settings of multigene panel testing, in individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and in a case of sudden arrhythmic death (e.g. Marsiglia_2013, Ripoll-Vera_2016, Campuzano_2017, Ho_2018, Te Rijdt_2019, Verdonschot_2020); however in several of these cases, the variant has been reported as a VUS and/or other variants in cardiac-related genes have also been reported in the same individual. Therefore, these reports do not provide strong evidence to support the variant's association with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, showing the variant did not differ from wild-type TNNT2 (e.g. Pettinato_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22958901, 24093860, 26507537, 30297972, 28255936, 32880476, 33025817, 30763825). Eight other submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, classifying the variant as uncertain significance (n=6), likely benign (n=1), or benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
not provided Uncertain:2
Reported in association with HCM and DCM (PMID: 24093860, 22958901, 26507537, 32880476); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Functional studies using stem cells suggest that this variant does not impact protein function (PMID: 33025817); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26507537, 28255936, 32880476, 30763825, 33025817, 24093860, 30297972, 22958901) -

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1D;C1861864:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 2;C2676271:Cardiomyopathy, familial restrictive, 3 Uncertain:2
- -
This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 221 of the TNNT2 protein (p.Ile221Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs45520032, gnomAD 0.03%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24093860, 26507537, 32880476, 33495596, 37198425, 37652022). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 181604). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TNNT2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect TNNT2 function (PMID: 33025817). 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. -

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 2 Uncertain:1Benign:1
- -
This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces isoleucine with threonine at codon 221 of the TNNT2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24093860, 26507537, 33495596), as well as in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy ARVC and dilated cardiomyopathy who also carried a pathogenic truncation variant in the PLN gene (PMID: 30763825). This variant has also been identified in 45/282870 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
