Invitae | RCV000799659 | SCV000939333 | uncertain significance | Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy | 2018-08-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine with histidine at codon 567 of the MYH7 protein (p.Arg567His). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between arginine and histidine. This variant is present in population databases (rs377491278, ExAC 0.006%). This variant has been observed in individuals affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24503780, 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 42860). This variant is found within a region of MYH7 between codons 181 and 937 that contains the majority of the myosin head domain. Missense variants in this region have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. |
