The Q112X variant in the TCAP gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Q112X is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function by protein truncation. However, the majority of cardiomyopathy-associated mutations in the TCAP gene are missense substitutions; no truncation mutations have been reported (Stenson P et al., 2014). Loss of function mutations in the TCAP gene that result in absence of protein expression from the mutant allele have only been reported in association with autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2G (Stenson P et al., 2014). Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
The p.Q112* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.334C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the TCAP gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 334. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theTCAP gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and impacts the last 33.5% of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Primary familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy;C4225408:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 25 Uncertain:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln112*) in the TCAP gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 56 amino acid(s) of the TCAP protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TCAP-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 202104). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
