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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 18, 2022Reported in a patient with muscle weakness and reduced ejection fraction who also harbored an additional TTN loss of function variant, but phase was not reported (Savarese et al., 2018); Nonsense variant in the C-terminus predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 113 amino acids are lost, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream in HGMD; Located in the M-line region of the titin protein, where the majority of pathogenic truncating variants associated with autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy have been reported (Carmignac et al., 2007); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32039858, 17444505, 32528171, 27796757, 29435569, 34935411, 28295036, 32778822, 34106991, 23975875) -

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionJan 03, 2022Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported in the predicted truncated region (PVS1_VS). The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000202529, PMID:28295036). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000012, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Neuromuscular disease Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 12, 2019The p.Gln33311X variant in TTN, reported in the literature as p.Gln35879X (NM_001267550.1), has been identified in the compound heterozygous or homozygous state in greater than 15 individuals with distal myopathy (Eliva 2017, Peric 2017, Savarese 2018). The majority of these individuals were Serbian, suggesting that this variant is likely a founder mutation in that population (Peric 2017). It has also been identified in 3/248904 chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID # 202529). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 33311. This alteration occurs within the terminal 50 bases of the second to last exon and is therefore likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive distal myopathy. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM3_VeryStrong, PM2, PP1. -

Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J;C1858763:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpApr 05, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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), but have not been definitively shown to cause cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 202529). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with clinical features of autosomal recessive TTN-related myopathy (PMID: 27796757, 28295036, 29435569). This variant is present in population databases (rs757082154, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln35879*) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. -

TTN-related myopathy Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 25, 2023The heterozygous p.Gln35879Ter variant in TTN was identified by our study, in the compound heterozygous state with a likely pathogenic variant (NC_000002.12:g.178543072del), in one individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. This individual also carried a likely pathogenic variant (NC_000002.12:g.178543072del), however the phase of these variants are unknown at this time. The p.Gln35879Ter variant in TTN has been previously reported in 16 unrelated individuals with TTN-related myopathy (PMID: 34106991, PMID: 29435569, PMID: 28295036) and segregated with disease in 2 affected relatives in one family (PMID: 34106991), but has been identified in 0.003% (1/34510) of Latino/Admixed American chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs757082154). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. Of these 16 affected individuals (PMID: 34106991, PMID: 29435569, PMID: 28295036), 3 were homozygotes (PMID: 28295036) and 6 were compound heterozygotes who carried pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in trans (PMID: 34106991, ClinVar Variation ID: 374145; PMID: 28295036, ClinVar Variation ID: 374145), which increases the likelihood that the p.Gln35879Ter variant is pathogenic. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 202529) and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 35879. This alteration occurs within the terminal 50 bases of the second to last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. Loss of function of the TTN gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 10. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 10. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1_Strong, PM2_Supporting, PM3_VeryStrong (Richards 2015). -
