Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_003673.4(TCAP):c.53G>A(p.Arg18Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000167 in 1,613,622 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R18W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not provided Uncertain:1
The R18Q variant of uncertain significance in the TCAP gene has been reported in one patient with idiopathic DCM; however, segregation and functional data was not provided (Hershberger et al., 2008). This variant has also been reported as a variant of uncertain significance by another laboratory (ClinVar SCV000287961.1; Landrum et al., 2016). The R18Q variant has not been observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; McVean et al., 2012; Exome Variant Server; Exome Aggregation Consortium). The R18Q variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. Nevertheless, this substitution occurs at a position not conserved across species and glutamine (Q) is the wild-type amino acid at this position in at least one vertebrate species. Furthermore, in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. -
Primary familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy;C4225408:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 25 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 18 of the TCAP protein (p.Arg18Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs45614536, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 19412328). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239548). 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 tolerated. 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. -
