RCV000158455 | SCV000208390 | pathogenic | not provided | 2014-10-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This mutation is denoted p.Trp1007Ter (TGG>TGA): c.3021 G>A in exon 29 of the MYBPC3 gene (NM_000256.3). The W1007X mutation in the MYBPC3 gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. W1007X is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other nonsense mutations in the MYBPC3 gene have been reported in association with HCM. Furthermore, the W1007X mutation was not observed in approximately 6,300 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. In summary, W1007X in the MYBPC3 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in HCM panel(s). |
