Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1 PM2

The ENST00000355349.4(MYH7):​c.3591_3592delinsAAGAAGC​(p.Asp1198ArgfsTer18) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A1197A) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

MYH7 (HGNC:7577): (myosin heavy chain 7) Muscle myosin is a hexameric protein containing 2 heavy chain subunits, 2 alkali light chain subunits, and 2 regulatory light chain subunits. This gene encodes the beta (or slow) heavy chain subunit of cardiac myosin. It is expressed predominantly in normal human ventricle. It is also expressed in skeletal muscle tissues rich in slow-twitch type I muscle fibers. Changes in the relative abundance of this protein and the alpha (or fast) heavy subunit of cardiac myosin correlate with the contractile velocity of cardiac muscle. Its expression is also altered during thyroid hormone depletion and hemodynamic overloading. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myosin storage myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, and Laing distal myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Asp1198fs variant in MYH7 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyop athy. This variant deletes 2 bases and inserts 7, resulting in a frameshift, whi ch is predicted to alter the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1198 and to lead to a premature termination codon 18 amino acids downstream. Th is alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. It sho uld be noted that loss of function variants in the MYH7 gene are very rare and t herefore, their phenotypic spectrum is incompletely characterized. Emerging evid ence suggests that truncating variants in MYH7 have little/no effect on their ow n but result in severe and early onset disease when a second variant is present on the other copy of the gene (LMM unpublished data). In summary, while this var iant severely impacts the protein, its clinical significance is uncertain. -

This variant is present in population databases (rs755646089, gnomAD 0.002%). 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228908). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MYH7-related conditions. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp1198Argfs*18) in the MYH7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in MYH7 cause disease. -
