RCV000627580 | SCV000748580 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2018-04-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.74054delA likely pathogenic variant in the TTN gene has not been published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge. c.74054delA causes a shift in reading frame starting at codon lysine 24685, changing it to a serine, and creating a premature stop codon at position 17 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Lys24685SerfsX17. This variant is expected to result in either an abnormal, truncated protein product or loss of protein from this allele through nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other truncating TTN variants have been reported in approximately 3% of control alleles (Herman et al., 2012). However, c.74054delA is located in the A-band region of titin, where the majority of truncating pathogenic variants associated with DCM have been reported (Herman et al., 2012). Moreover, the c.74054delA variant has not been observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016).In summary, c.74054delA in the TTN gene is interpreted as a likely pathogenic variant. |
