Genes affected
MYLK (HGNC:7590): (myosin light chain kinase) This gene, a muscle member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily, encodes myosin light chain kinase which is a calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme. This kinase phosphorylates myosin regulatory light chains to facilitate myosin interaction with actin filaments to produce contractile activity. This gene encodes both smooth muscle and nonmuscle isoforms. In addition, using a separate promoter in an intron in the 3' region, it encodes telokin, a small protein identical in sequence to the C-terminus of myosin light chain kinase, that is independently expressed in smooth muscle and functions to stabilize unphosphorylated myosin filaments. A pseudogene is located on the p arm of chromosome 3. Four transcript variants that produce four isoforms of the calcium/calmodulin dependent enzyme have been identified as well as two transcripts that produce two isoforms of telokin. Additional variants have been identified but lack full length transcripts. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 7 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 11, 2022This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 268203). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (PMID: 25907466, 28401540). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1487*) in the MYLK gene. This variant occurs within the aortic-specific isoform of MYLK. Loss-of-function variants in the aortic-specific isoform of MYLK are known to be pathogenic for thoracic aortic dissections (PMID: 21055718). -
