Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000211873 SCV000245640 uncertain significance not specified 2019-08-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Arg1344Gln variant in MYH7 has been reported in at least 3 individuals with HCM (Marsiglia 2013, Bos 2014, Cirino 2017, LMM data). It was also identified in 4/282350 chromosomes by gnomAD (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID #208597). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PS4_Supporting, PP3.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001179058 SCV001343639 uncertain significance Cardiomyopathy 2022-12-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 1344 of the MYH7 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in four unrelated individuals affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24093860, 24793961, 25558701, 29030401, 32894683), in an individual affected with left ventricular noncompaction (PMID: 34853230), and in an individual affected with sudden unexplained death (PMID: 31195250). This variant has been identified in 4/282350 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Invitae RCV001852531 SCV002246627 likely pathogenic Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 2024-01-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1344 of the MYH7 protein (p.Arg1344Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs797045097, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24093860, 24793961, 25558701, 27247418, 29030401, 32528171, 32894683). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 208597). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYH7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. 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.

Ambry Genetics RCV002354537 SCV002622373 uncertain significance Cardiovascular phenotype 2019-12-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R1344Q variant (also known as c.4031G>A), located in coding exon 28 of the MYH7 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4031. The arginine at codon 1344 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) as well as once in a sudden unexplained death (SUD) cohort (Marsiglia JD et al. Am. Heart J., 2013 Oct;166:775-82; Bos JM et al. Mayo Clin. Proc., 2014 Jun;89:727-37; Arad M et al. Isr. Med. Assoc. J., 2014 Nov;16:707-13; Homburger JR et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 2016 06;113:6701-6; Cirino AL et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2017 Oct;10:; Gando I et al. Forensic Sci. Int., 2019 Aug;301:289-298). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford University RCV000223729 SCV000280344 likely pathogenic not provided 2011-11-03 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. p.Arg1344Gln (c.4031G>A) in the MYH7 gene. Given the newly reported presence in cases around the world, the absence in unselected populations, we consider this variant likely disease causing. When the patient first had genetic testing the variant was novel, with no published data. Ackerman's group observed the variant in one patient in their cohort of 1053 unrelated patients with HCM who underwent DHLPC-based analysis of 9 sarcomere genes at Mayo (Bos et al 2014). Note that these cases may overlap with prior reports by Ackerman's group (ex. van Driest et al 2005). Arad et al (2014) reported the variant in a patient with HCM in their Israeli cohort. The patient presented at 13yo and had "massive LVH" (also described as "severe distal hypertrophy"), severe heart failure, and, reportedly, growth delay. It is unclear what genes were sequenced. Marsiglia et al (2013) observed the variant in one of 268 unrelated patients with HCM in their Brazilian cohort. Subjects underwent sequencing of MYH7, MYBPC3, TNNT2. There is no ClinVar entry (as of July 22nd, 2015) and there are no other cases in SHaRe. In silico analysis with Polyphen predicts this variant as probably damaging with a score of 0.984. MutationTaster predicts this variant to be disease causing with a score of 43. The Arganine at codon 1344 is completely conserved across species and isoforms. A polar positive Arginine is replaced with a polar neutral Glutamine. Another variant, p.Arg1344Trp has been reported with disease and is in ClinVar as pathogenic by GeneDx and a variant of uncertain significance by LMM. The variant is not listed in dbSNP or 1000 genomes (as of June 20, 2013). The variant is also not currently listed in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project dataset, which includes variant calls on ~6,500 Caucasian and African American individuals (as of June 20, 2013). Bos et al (2014) did not observe the variant in 200 "ostensibly healthy" individuals. This variant is not listed in the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/), which currently includes variant calls on ~64,000 individuals of European, African, Latino and Asian descent (as of July 22nd, 2015). However, another variant at that codon (p.Arg1344Trp) is present in 2 of 60,278 individuals.
