Genes affected
ACTN2 (HGNC:164): (actinin alpha 2) Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins, including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a muscle-specific, alpha actinin isoform that is expressed in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Submissions by phenotype

Primary familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy;C2677338:Dilated cardiomyopathy 1AA Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 14, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 640 of the ACTN2 protein (p.Arg640Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs769453411, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ACTN2-related conditions (PMID: 26688388, 29247119). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 296507). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt ACTN2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
Dilated cardiomyopathy 1AA Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 30, 2022The p.R640C variant (also known as c.1918C>T), located in coding exon 16 of the ACTN2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1918. The arginine at codon 640 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in sudden death cohorts; however, clinical details were limited (Chanavat V et al. Clin Chim Acta, 2016 Jan;453:80-5; Lin Y et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2017 Dec;10:[ePub ahead of print]). Additionally, this variant was detected in a cardiomyopathy genetic testing cohort; however, clinical details were limited, and additional cardiac variants were detected in some cases (van Lint FHM et al. Neth Heart J, 2019 Jun;27:304-309). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
