The c.3261_3262delCCinsG variant, located in coding exon 11 of the RBM20 gene, results from the deletion of two nucleotides and insertion of one nucleotide causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1087Rfs*17). This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy (Mazzarotto F et al. Circulation. 2020 Feb;141(5):387-398). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, loss of function of RBM20 has not been clearly established as a mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

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

The p.Ser1087fs variant in RBM20 has been reported by our laboratory in 2 indivi duals with DCM and segregated with disease in 4 affected relatives from 1 family . This variant was absent from large population studies, though the ability of t hese studies to accurately detect indels may be limited. This variant is predict ed to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginni ng at position 1087 and leads to a premature termination codon 17 amino acids do wnstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent pro tein. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish it s clinical significance, the p.Ser1087fs variant is likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1087Argfs*17) in the RBM20 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in RBM20 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RBM20-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2691238). 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. -
