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:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 13 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-178527662-G-GGACT is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-178527662-G-GGACT is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 404666.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Likely_pathogenic=2}.

This sequence change inserts 4 nucleotides in exon 362 of the TTN mRNA (c.107460_107463dupAGTC), causing a frameshift at codon 35822. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln35822Serfs*21) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is found in the M-band of this gene. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, truncating variants in the M-band of TTN previously reported in patients affected with various forms of myopathy and muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18948003, 23975875, 24395473). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

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. This variant is located in the M band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have been previously reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive myopathy and muscular dystrophy (PMID: 18948003, 23975875, 24395473), but have not been definitively shown to cause cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 404666). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TTN-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln35822Serfs*21) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. -
