Ambry Genetics | RCV000622017 | SCV000735468 | uncertain significance | Cardiovascular phenotype | 2016-07-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.39574+4A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 4 nucleotides after coding exon 143 in the TTN gene. This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs368682419. Based on data from ExAC, the G allele has an overall frequency of less than 0.01% (1/93732). Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the G allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.01% (1/11960) total alleles studied, having been observed in 0.03% (1/3744) African American alleles. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to weaken the efficiency of the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV002531738 | SCV003029447 | uncertain significance | Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J | 2022-01-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is located in the A band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Variants in this region may be relevant for cardiac or neuromuscular disorders (PMID: 25589632, 23975875). 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. This sequence change falls in intron 316 of the TTN gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the TTN protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs368682419, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TTN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 518545). Variants that disrupt 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. |
