Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Located in the M-line region of TTN in which the majority of loss of function variants have been associated with autosomal recessive titinopathies (PMID: 17444505); Observed in an individual with dilated cardiomyopathy; however, it is unclear whether the variant was observed independently or in conjunction with another TTN variant (PMID: 31737537); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34958143, 33820833, 17444505, 31737537) -

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J;C1858763:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg34805*) 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 (rs750519430, gnomAD 0.002%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with centronuclear myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and clinical features of TTN-related conditions (PMID: 31737537, 33820833, 34958143, 36264615). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 290707). This variant is located in the M band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have been previously reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive myopathy and muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18948003, 23975875, 24395473). Truncating variants in this region have also been identified in individuals affected with autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy and/or cardio-related conditions (PMID: 27869827, 32964742). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
The p.R25740* variant (also known as c.77218C>T), located in coding exon 185 of the TTN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 77218. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 185. This exon is located in the M-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 variant (also referred to as NM_001267550.1:c.104413C>T, p.R34805*) was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy (Marschall C et al. Cardiovasc Diagn Ther, 2019 Oct;9:S292-S298; Bourfiss M et al. Circ Genom Precis Med, 2022 Dec;15:e003704). This variant (also referred to as NM_133378.4:c.96709C>T, p.Arg32237*) has been identified in conjunction with other TTN variant(s) in a case with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and in a case with intrauterine growth restriction, joint displacement, polyhydramnios, nuchal edema, and lung hypoplasia (Laquerriere A et al. J Med Genet, 2022 Jun;59:559-567; Gabriel H et al. Prenat Diagn, 2022 Jun;42:845-851). This variant 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 M-band have been reported in association with autosomal recessive titinopathies, primarily presenting with skeletal myopathy phenotypes (Ceyhan-Birsoy O et al. Neurology. 2013 Oct 1;81(14):1205-14; De Cid R et al. Neurology. 2015;85(24):2126-35). In addition, regardless of their position, TTN truncating variants encoded in constitutive exons (PSI >90%) have been found to be significantly associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), though truncating variants in the A-band are the most common cause of 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; Schafer S et al. Nat. Genet., 2017 01;49:46-53; Akhtar MM et al. Circ Heart Fail, 2020 Oct;13:e006832; Massier M et al. Clin Genet, 2025 Jan). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic in association with autosomal recessive titinopathy; however, the clinical significance of this alteration with respect to cardiomyopathy remains unclear. -
