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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys27114Glnfs*9) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 263802). This variant is located in the A band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region are significantly overrepresented in patients affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

​The c.73636_73640delAAGAA likely pathogenic variant, located in coding exon 274 of the TTN gene, results from a deletion of five nucleotides between positions 73636 and 73640, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon. Frameshift alterations resulting in a truncated protein substantially alter protein structure, and this variant therefore meets ACMG criteria for classification as a mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med 2008;10:294). Furthermore, truncating alterations in TTN were observed at a significantly higher frequency among patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), or 54/203 (27%), compared to patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (3/231, 1%, P=9x10-14) and healthy controls (7 of 247, 3%, P=4x10-5). Among families with multiple relatives with DCM, this study also provided strong data demonstrating segregation with disease (Herman DS et al. N Eng J Med. 2012;366:619-628). However, the functional consequence of protein truncating alterations in TTN have not been well described, and this specific alteration (TTN c.73636_73640delAAGAA) has not been reported in the literature. Therefore, this variant is likely to be pathogenic; however, due to the uncertainty of the functional and clinical consequences, its significance remains unclear. -
