Invitae RCV000700429 SCV000829183 uncertain significance Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J 2020-01-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is located in the I band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Variants in this region may be relevant for neuromuscular disorders, but have not been definitively shown to cause cardiomyopathy (PMID: 23975875). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with TTN-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 577626). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 73 of the TTN gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the TTN protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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.
