RCV000209488 | SCV000189787 | likely pathogenic | Primary dilated cardiomyopathy | 2014-10-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | research | This TTN truncating variant (TTNtv) was identified in two individuals in this cohort and is located in an exon that is highly expressed in the heart. In the seven cohorts assessed, TTNtv were found in 14% of ambulant DCM, 22% end-stage or familial DCM, and 2% controls. Heterozygous nonsense, frameshift and canonical splice-disrupting variants found in constitutive and other highly utilised exons are highly likely to be pathogenic when identified in individuals with phenotypically confirmed DCM. TTNtv found incidentally in healthy individuals (excluding familial assessment of DCM relatives) are thought to have low penetrance, particularly when identified in exons that are not constitutively expressed in the heart. |

RCV000469186 | SCV000542936 | likely pathogenic | Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G | 2016-08-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 326 of the TTN mRNA (c.76115dupA), causing a frameshift at codon 25372. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn25372Lysfs*5) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is found in the A-band of this gene. This particular variant was reported in an individual with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). 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). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 223383). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |

RCV004529011 | SCV000915869 | uncertain significance | TTN-related disorder | 2017-08-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The TTN c.68411dupA (p.Asn22804LysfsTer5) variant results in a frameshift, and is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. This variant has been reported in one study and is found in a heterozygous state in two individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (Roberts et al. 2015). This variant has not been described in the literature in association with hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, Salih myopathy, or Udd distal myopathy. The p.Asn22804LysfsTer5 was absent from 308 controls. The variant is reported at a frequency of 0.000009 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Genome Aggregation Database but this is based on one allele in a region of good sequence coverage so the variant is presumed to be rare. Due to the limited evidence and potential impact of frameshift variants, the p.Asn22804LysfsTer5 variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for TTN-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. |

RCV001378109 | SCV001575605 | likely pathogenic | Dilated cardiomyopathy 1G; Autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2J | 2023-01-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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. This variant is located in the A band of TTN (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region are significantly overrepresented in patients affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632). Truncating variants in this region have also been reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy (PMID: 23975875). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 223383). This variant is also known as p.N23731Kfs*5. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25589632, 26406308, 29093449, 34587765). This variant is present in population databases (rs774604740, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn25372Lysfs*5) in the TTN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to create a truncated TTN protein. |

Ambry Genetics | RCV004020569 | SCV005020749 | pathogenic | Cardiovascular phenotype | 2024-03-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.48920dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 153 of the TTN gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 48920, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N16307Kfs*5). This exon is located in the A-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 variant (also referred to as p.Asn25372fs and p.N16499Kfs*5) was reported in individuals with features consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy (Roberts AM et al. Sci Transl Med, 2015 Jan;7:270ra6; Marston S et al. PLoS One, 2015 Sep;10:e0138568). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. |
