Genes affected

MYLK (HGNC:7590): (myosin light chain kinase) This gene, a muscle member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily, encodes myosin light chain kinase which is a calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme. This kinase phosphorylates myosin regulatory light chains to facilitate myosin interaction with actin filaments to produce contractile activity. This gene encodes both smooth muscle and nonmuscle isoforms. In addition, using a separate promoter in an intron in the 3' region, it encodes telokin, a small protein identical in sequence to the C-terminus of myosin light chain kinase, that is independently expressed in smooth muscle and functions to stabilize unphosphorylated myosin filaments. A pseudogene is located on the p arm of chromosome 3. Four transcript variants that produce four isoforms of the calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme have been identified as well as two transcripts that produce two isoforms of telokin. Additional variants have been identified but lack full length transcripts. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MYLK c.1786G>A; p.Ala596Thr variant (rs758715543), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 471704). This variant is only observed on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The alanine at codon 596 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.462). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Ala596Thr variant is uncertain at this time. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 596 of the MYLK protein (p.Ala596Thr). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with aortic dissection and/or dilatation (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 471704). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MYLK protein function. 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. -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.3, this variant is classified as VUS-3B. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with familial thoracic aortic aneurysm, 7 (MIM#613780). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. This gene is associated with autosomal dominant familial thoracic aortic aneurysm, 7 (MIM#613780) although homozygous carriers with more early-onset severe disease have also been reported, and autosomal recessive megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MIM#249210) (PMID: 29544503; OMIM). (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (PMID: 29544503; OMIM). (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity (PMID: 29544503). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from alanine to threonine. (I) 0219 - This variant is non-coding in an alternative transcript. This variant is non-coding in the NM_053031.4 and NM_053032.4 transcripts. Although these transcripts are more widely expressed than our chosen transcript, the variant is located in an exon (exon 13) which has increased expression in the aorta, our tissue of interest, compared to other tissues (UCSC, GTEx). (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.001 for a dominant condition (10 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0502 - Missense variant with conflicting in silico predictions and uninformative conservation. (I) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated Ig-like C2-type 4 domain (UniProt). (I) 0705 - No comparable missense variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0809 - Previous evidence of pathogenicity for this variant is inconclusive. This variant has been classified as a VUS in Clinvar. (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.A596T variant (also known as c.1786G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the MYLK gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1786. The alanine at codon 596 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with some similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
