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.

TTN-AS1 (HGNC:44124): (TTN antisense RNA 1) This gene encodes a non-coding RNA transcribed from the opposite strand to the titin gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 7.686893E-4 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.1, offset of 6, new splice context is: tggtatcttttacgtgccAGaag. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 23, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 130 of the TTN gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in a truncated or disrupted TTN protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs781581062, gnomAD 0.007%). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 573253). This variant is located in the I band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have been shown to be highly prevalent in the general population and unaffected individuals (PMID: 26701604, 22335739). However, truncating variants in this region have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TTN-related conditions. -
