The NM_001267550.2(TTN):c.98959_98960delinsCT(p.Ser32987Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S32987F) has been classified as Likely benign.
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.

The Ser30419Leu variant in TTN has now been identified by our laboratory in 1 in fant with DCM and 1 adult with HCM. It was not identified in large population st udies. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clin ical significance of the Ser30419Leu variant. -

Variant summary: TTN c.91255_91256delinsCT (p.Ser30419Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the A-band region of the encoded protein sequence. Two of three in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9e-05 in 279158 control chromosomes. This frequency does not allow conclusions about variant significance. c.91255_91256delinsCT has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (Wasielewski_2014), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Burstein_2021), and pediatric-onset cardiomyopathy (Herkert_2020), however, co-segregation and co-occurrence data suggested the variant was not causative of disease in all cases. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Type 2J. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have cited the variant with conflicting assessments; 4 submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance, and one submitter classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The TTN c.98959_98960delinsCT variant is predicted to result in an in-frame deletion and insertion. This variant has been reported in an individual with dilated cardiomyopathy (aka p.Ser31346Leu, Wasielewski et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25332820) and an individual with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (aka p.Ser30419Leu, Table S2, Burstein et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 32746448). This variant was also observed in an individual with severe cardiac defects; however, a sibling that was also affected did not carry the variant (aka p.Ser30419Leu, Family 7, Herkert et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32480058). This variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD as a multi-nucleotide variant (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-179403703-A-G; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-179403702-G-A). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

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. -
