Invitae RCV001378073 SCV001575559 likely pathogenic Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J 2018-04-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change inserts Alu in exon 301 of the TTN mRNA (NM_001267550.2:c.59570_59571insAlu), causing a frameshift at codon 19857 (p.Leu19857Phefs*45). The exact size and sequence of the insertion cannot be determined by the current assay. However, the insertion is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Retrotransposon insertions including LINE1 (L1), Alu, and SVA (SINE-VNTR-Alu) have been reported to be disease-causing through disruption of either a coding region or splice site (PMID: 19763152, 20307669, 22406018). This variant is found in the A-band of this gene. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, truncating variants in the A-band of TTN are significantly overrepresented in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and are considered to be likely pathogenic for the disease (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in TTN have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). 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.
