GeneDx RCV000478967 SCV000572560 likely pathogenic not provided 2024-02-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Located in a region of TTN within the I-band in which the majority of loss of function variants are significantly associated with autosomal dominant titinopathies (PMID: 27625338, 27869827); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27625338, 27869827)
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001214649 SCV001386338 likely pathogenic Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J 2024-12-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro14793Glnfs*11) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been observed in the literature in individuals with autosomal recessive TTN-related conditions. This variant has been reported in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (internal data); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 422955). This variant is located in the I band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875, internal data). Truncating variants in this region have also been identified in individuals affected with autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy and/or cardio-related conditions (PMID: 27869827, 32964742, internal data). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV004023185 SCV005020372 likely pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2023-11-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.17183delC variant, located in coding exon 67 of the TTN gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 17183, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.P5728Qfs*11). This exon is located in the I-band region of the N2-B isoform of the titin protein and is constitutively expressed in TTN transcripts (percent spliced in or PSI 100%). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. While truncating variants in TTN are present in 1-3% of the general population, truncating variants in the A-band are the most common cause of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (Herman DS et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2012 Feb;366:619-28; Roberts AM et al. Sci Transl Med, 2015 Jan;7:270ra6). TTN truncating variants encoded in constitutive exons (PSI >90%) have been found to be significantly associated with DCM regardless of their position in titin (Schafer S et al. Nat. Genet., 2017 01;49:46-53). This variant is also considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
