Genes affected
FHL2 (HGNC:3703): (four and a half LIM domains 2) This gene encodes a member of the four-and-a-half-LIM-only protein family. Family members contain two highly conserved, tandemly arranged, zinc finger domains with four highly conserved cysteines binding a zinc atom in each zinc finger. This protein is thought to have a role in the assembly of extracellular membranes. Also, this gene is down-regulated during transformation of normal myoblasts to rhabdomyosarcoma cells and the encoded protein may function as a link between presenilin-2 and an intracellular signaling pathway. Multiple alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineAug 02, 2013The Thr171Met variant in FHL2 has not been reported in individuals with cardiomy opathy. Data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequen cy of this variant. Threonine (Thr) is not well conserved in evolution and 1 mam malian species carries the variant amino acid (Met), raising the possibility tha t this change may be tolerated. Additional computational analyses (biochemical a mino acid properties, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to dete rmine pathogenicity. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clinic al significance of this variant. -
Primary dilated cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 171 of the FHL2 protein (p.Thr171Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs727504674, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25358972). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179156). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FHL2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects FHL2 function (PMID: 25358972). 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. -
