RCV000184401 | SCV000237026 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2014-09-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | p.Ser3744Ter (TCA>TGA): c.11231 C>G in exon 46 of the TTN gene (#NM_001267550.1) A variant of unknown significance has been identified in the TTN gene. The S3744X variant in the TTN gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The S3744X variant was not observed in approximately 6,100 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. S3744X is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, the S3744X variant resides in an inferred transcript that includes all possible supported in-frame coding exons. The expression pattern of this transcript is unknown. This variant maps to deep intronic regions in the major cardiac titin isoforms (N2BA; NM_001256850 and N2-B; NM_003319). Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant.The variant is found in DCM-CRDM panel(s). |
