Invitae | RCV000693026 | SCV000820879 | uncertain significance | Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 2; Left ventricular noncompaction 6; Familial restrictive cardiomyopathy 3 | 2018-09-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces valine with isoleucine at codon 121 of the TNNT2 protein (p.Val121Ile). The valine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and isoleucine. This variant is present in population databases (rs537067344, ExAC 0.03%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant (PMID: 28166811). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TNNT2-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The isoleucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. |
