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.

The TTN c.41483delC variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Pro13828Glnfs*6). This variant occurs within the I-band region of the titin protein. RNAseq studies from heart tissue indicate this exon is commonly included in TTN mRNA transcripts (PSI of 100%, Roberts AM et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25589632; https://cardiodb.org/titin/titin_transcripts.php). TTN truncating variants are reported in 1-2% of presumably healthy individuals, but occur more frequently in exons with low PSI values (Roberts AM et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25589632; Herman DS et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22335739). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0029% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-179500814-TG-T). Of note, truncating TTN variants in constitutive exons (PSI > 90%) are significantly associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) irrespective of their position in TTN (Schafer S et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27869827). In addition, truncating TTN mutations have also been associated with autosomal recessive congenital myopathy (Ceyhan-Birsoy O et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23975875). Therefore, the c.41483delC (p.Pro13828Glnfs*6) variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic for recessive and dominant TTN-related disorders. -

Variant summary: TTN c.33779delC (p.Pro11260GlnfsX6) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 248406 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.33779delC in individuals affected with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, Type 2J and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Nonsense, frameshift, and canonical splice-site variants in TTN are strongly associated with DCM when they affect exons encoding for the A-band region (PMIDs: 22335739, 24503780) and/or exons constitutively expressed (proportion spliced in [PSI]>0.9) in the primary cardiac isoforms (PMIDs: 25589632, 31216868, 32964742, 27869827), which is the case for this variant (I band with a PSI score of 100%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228299). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

The c.14288delC variant, located in coding exon 53 of the TTN gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 14288, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.P4763Qfs*6). This exon is located in the I-band region of the N2-B isoform of the titin protein and is constitutively expressed in TTN transcripts (percent spliced in or PSI 100%). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). While truncating variants in TTN are present in 1-3% of the general population, truncating variants in the A-band are the most common cause of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (Herman DS et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2012 Feb;366:619-28; Roberts AM et al. Sci Transl Med. 2015 Jan;7:270ra6). TTN truncating variants encoded in constitutive exons (PSI >90%) have been found to be significantly associated with DCM regardless of their position in titin (Schafer S et al. Nat. Genet. 2017 Jan;49:46-53). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -

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. 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). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228299). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TTN-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro13828Glnfs*6) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. -
