RCV000184206 | SCV000236828 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2014-04-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | p.Gln505Stop (CAG>TAG): c.1513 C>T in exon 9 of the TTN gene (NM_001256850.1). The G505X variant in the TTN gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. G505X is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, the G505X variant is not located in the A-band region of TTN, where the majority of truncating mutations associated with DCM have been reported (Herman D et al., 2012). Other truncating TTN variants have been reported in approximately 3% of control alleles (Herman D et al., 2012).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). |
