RCV000184255 | SCV000236877 | pathogenic | not provided | 2014-04-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | c.64793-1 G>T: IVS275-1 G>T in intron 275 of the TTN gene (NM_001256850.1). Although the c.64793-1 G>T mutation has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge, this mutation destroys the canonical splice acceptor site in intron 275 and is predicted to cause abnormal gene splicing. The mutation is predicted to lead to either an abnormal message that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, or to an abnormal protein product if the message is used for protein translation. Other truncating TTN variants have been reported in approximately 3% of control alleles (Herman D et al., 2012). However, c.64793-1 G>T is located in the A-band region of titin, where the majority of truncating mutations associated with DCM have been reported (Herman D et al., 2012).In summary, c.64793-1 G>T in the TTN gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in CARDIOMYOPATHY panel(s). |
