RCV000184504 | SCV000237150 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2016-09-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The C11140W variant in the TTN gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The C11140W variant was not observed in approximately 6100 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The C11140W variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs within the I-band, at a position that is conserved in mammals. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, we interpret C11140W as a variant of uncertain significance. |
