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]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineDec 03, 2015The p.Ala732Thr variant in ACTN2 has been identified by our laboratory in 2 indi viduals: 1 with HCM and 1 DCM. However, both individuals carried an additional v ariant of likely clinical significance (Zimmerman 2010, LMM unpublished data). The p.Ala732Thr variant has also been identified in 5/66736 of European chromoso mes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Ala7 32Thr variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala732Thr variant is uncertain. -

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxSep 10, 2018The Ala732Thr variant in the ACTN2 gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Ala732Thr results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a nonpolar Alanine with a polar Threonine at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts Ala732Thr is damaging to the protein structure/function. The Ala732Thr variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Nevertheless, no mutations in nearby residues have been reported in association with DCM. With the clinical and molecular information available at this time, we cannot definitively determine if Ala732Thr are disease-causing mutations or rare benign variants. The variant is found in DCM panel(s). -
Myopathy, distal, 6, adult-onset, autosomal dominant Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterresearchBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardSep 29, 2023The heterozygous p.Ala732Thr variant in ACTN2 was identified by the Broad Institute Rare Genomes Project in 4 family members with distal myopathy and/or cardiomyopathy (publication in progress). However, this family carries another ACTN2 variant in cis (p.Asp841fs, ClinVar Variation ID: 201652) that is more likely to explain their disease. The p.Ala732Thr variant has also been reported in 2 individuals with cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20474083, 32826072), and has been identified in 0.007% (8/113766) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP {rs777744290}). This variant has been seen in the general population, in a heterozygous state, at greater rate than expected for disorder. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 201647) and has been interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance by GeneDx, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine (Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine}, Ambry Genetics, and Fulgent Genetics and as likely benign by Invitae. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Ala732Thr variant is uncertain, these data suggest that it is more likely to be benign. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1_supporting, BP2, PP1 (Richards 2015). -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 03, 2024The p.A732T variant (also known as c.2194G>A), located in coding exon 18 of the ACTN2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2194. The alanine at codon 732 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was first detected in conjunction with another ACTN2 alteration in an individual with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM); however, the phase of these alterations was unknown (Zimmerman et al. Genet. Med. 2010;12(5):268-78). Additionally, this alteration has been reported in a DCM cohort (Peña-Peña ML et al. Med Clin (Barc), 2021 May;156:485-495). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
