RCV000155591 | SCV000205299 | likely pathogenic | Primary dilated cardiomyopathy | 2015-03-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Ser17566fs variant in TTN has been identified by our laboratory in 1 Cauca sian adult with DCM and segregated with disease in 2 affected relatives. It was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frame shift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1756 6 and leads to a premature termination codon 9 amino acids downstream. This alte ration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Frameshift an d other truncating variants in TTN are strongly associated with DCM, particularl y if they are located in the exons encoding for the A-band region of the protein (Herman 2012, Pugh 2014), where this variant is located. In summary, although a dditional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Ser17566fs variant is likely pathogenic. |
