Genes affected
TRPM4 (HGNC:17993): (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 4) The protein encoded by this gene is a calcium-activated nonselective ion channel that mediates transport of monovalent cations across membranes, thereby depolarizing the membrane. The activity of the encoded protein increases with increasing intracellular calcium concentration, but this channel does not transport calcium. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Likely benign. Following criteria are met: 0101 - Gain of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with progressive familial heart block, type IB (MIM#604559). Gain of function has been reported for missense variants while there are limited reports demonstrated loss of function as a mechanism of disease for missense variants (PMIDs: 20562447, 29568272, 28315637). It should also be noted that it is currently unclear if null variants can cause disease. (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. There is moderate evidence for its association with progressive familial heart block, type IB (MIM#604559), and low evidence for its association with erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 6 (MIM#618531) (PanelApp Australia). (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance. Incomplete penetrance has been reported in families or individuals with cardiac conduction disease (PMID: 20562447). (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0308 - Population frequency for this variant is out of keeping with known incidence of progressive familial heart block, type IB (MIM#604559) (gnomAD v2 and v3: 580 heterozygotes, 4 homozygotes). (SB) 0710 - Other null variants comparable to the one identified in this case have inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. Other NMD-predicted variants have been classified as like benign, benign or a VUS (ClinVar, CeGaT Center for Human Genetics Tuebingen personal communication). It should be noted that variants that have been classified as likely benign or benign also have a large number of heterozygotes in gnomAD v2. (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant has been classified as likely benign or benign by multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories although it has also been reported in individuals with sudden infant death syndrome or sudden death and considered potentially causative (PMIDs: 26350513, 28074886, 31847883). However, a recent publication from the European Society of Cardiology Council on cardiovascular genomics considers this variant to be non-pathogenic (PMID: 35089333). (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Variant summary: TRPM4 c.1575G>A (p.Trp525X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay. It is not possible to predict the impact of this nonsense variant since Gain-of-Function is the common mechanism of disease for TRPM4 in Progressive Familial Heart Block, Type 1B (OMIM 606936). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0015 in 260054 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 3 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 600 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TRPM4 causing Progressive Familial Heart Block Type 1B phenotype (2.5e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. Seven ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: one classified the variant as uncertain significance, one as likely pathogenic, three as likely benign, and two as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.

Significance:Likely benign

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.
