Genes affected
VCL (HGNC:12665): (vinculin) Vinculin is a cytoskeletal protein associated with cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions, where it is thought to function as one of several interacting proteins involved in anchoring F-actin to the membrane. Defects in VCL are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1W. Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1W Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 15, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 667 of the VCL protein (p.Thr667Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs794729187, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VCL-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 202146). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 12, 2012p.Thr667Met (ACG>ATG): c.2000 C>T in exon 14 of the VCL gene (NM_014000.2). The Thr667Met variant in the VCL gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Thr667Met results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a neutral, polar Threonine with a non-polar Methionine at a position that is class conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts Thr667Met is possibly damaging to the protein structure/function. The NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Thr667Met was not observed in approximately 6,000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Nevertheless, no mutations in nearby codons have been reported in association with cardiomyopathy. Hereditary dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is primarily an autosomal dominant disease characterized by left ventricular enlargement and systolic dysfunction in the absence of other cardiac, systemic or environmental causes (Hershberger R et al., 2009). Although rare, mutations in the VCL gene have been reported in association with DCM (Maeda M et al., 1997; Olson T et al., 2002). With the clinical and molecular information available at this time, we cannot definitively determine if Thr667Met is a disease-causing mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in DCM panel(s). -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 01, 2022The p.T667M variant (also known as c.2000C>T), located in coding exon 14 of the VCL gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2000. The threonine at codon 667 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. The evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited; therefore, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -
