Genes affected
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.

TTN-AS1 (HGNC:44124): (TTN antisense RNA 1) This gene encodes a non-coding RNA transcribed from the opposite strand to the titin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

TTN-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJun 20, 2023The TTN c.80716C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg26906*). This variant has been reported in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (Haas et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25163546; Cuenca et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26899768). Many other truncating variants in this exon have been reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy (https://www.cardiodb.org/titin/titin_exon.php?id=327, Roberts et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25589632). The c.80716C>T variant is located in the A-band region of the TTN protein and several other truncating variants in this exon have previously been reported to be pathogenic for recessive and dominant TTN-related disorders including dilated cardiomyopathy, centronuclear myopathy, and muscular dystrophy (Human Gene Mutation Database; www.cardiodb.org/titin/titin_exon.php?id=327). RNAseq studies from heart tissue indicate this exon is commonly included in TTN mRNA transcripts (PSI of 100%); however, this analysis was not performed in muscle tissue (Roberts et al. 2015. PMID: 25589632; www.cardiodb.org/titin/titin_exon.php?id=327). TTN truncating variants are reported in 1-2% of presumably healthy individuals and occur more frequently in exons with low PSI values, indicating this variant is more likely to be disease causing (Roberts et al. 2015. PMID: 25589632; Herman et al. 2012. PMID: 22335739).This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-179430143-G-A). In summary, this variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic for TTN-related disorders. -
Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J;C1858763:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 18, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg26906*) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs727505284, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25163546, 26899768; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.C54097T (p.R18033X) and c.53521C>T (p.Arg17841*). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 180010). This variant is located in the A band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region are significantly overrepresented in patients affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Primary dilated cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 02, 2017The p.Arg24338X variant in TTN has been identified in at least 3 individuals wit h DCM and segregated with disease in 5 affected relatives (Haas 2015, Cuenca 201 6, LMM data). It has been identified in 2/30756 South Asian chromosomes by the G enome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). This varian t is present in ClinVar (Variation ID: 180010). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 24338, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Nonsense and other truncating variants in TTN are s trongly associated with DCM if they are located in the exons encoding for the A- band (Herman 2012, Pugh 2014) and/or are located in an exon that is highly expre ssed in the heart (Roberts 2015). The p.Arg24338X variant is located in A-band i n the highly expressed exon 275. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be c lassified as pathogenic for DCM in an autosomal dominant manner. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 23, 2021The p.R17841* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.53521C>T), located in coding exon 153 of the TTN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 53521. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 153. This exon is located in the A-band region of the N2-B isoform of the titin protein and is constitutively expressed in TTN transcripts (percent spliced in or PSI 100%). This mutation (also described as NM_133437 p.R18033X) has been reported in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), including several affected relatives from a single family (Haas J et al. Eur Heart J, 2015 May;36:1123-35a; Cuenca S et al. J Heart Lung Transplant, 2016 05;35:625-35). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. While truncating variants in TTN are present in 1-3% of the general population, truncating variants in the A-band are the most common cause of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (Herman DS et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2012 Feb;366:619-28; Roberts AM et al. Sci Transl Med, 2015 Jan;7:270ra6). TTN truncating variants encoded in constitutive exons (PSI >90%) have been found to be significantly associated with DCM regardless of their position in titin (Schafer S et al. Nat. Genet., 2017 01;49:46-53). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
