Ambry Genetics RCV000617531 SCV000735597 uncertain significance Cardiovascular phenotype 2018-11-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R279W variant (also known as c.835C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the TTN gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 835. The arginine at codon 279 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was reported in cis with a truncating TTN alteration in a family with both dilated cardiomyopathy and peripartum cardiomyopathy (van Spaendonck-Zwarts KY et al. Eur Heart J. 2014;35:2165-73). This alteration has also been reported as a secondary cardiac variant in an exome cohort, and was detected in a sudden unexplained death case with variants in other cardiac-related genes (Ng D et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet. 2013;6:337-46; Sanchez O et al. PLoS ONE. 2016;11(12):e0167358). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001131435 SCV001291056 uncertain significance Early-onset myopathy with fatal cardiomyopathy 2017-04-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search.

A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000219791 SCV004021283 likely benign not specified 2023-06-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: TTN c.835C>T (p.Arg279Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Z-disk region of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00019 in 282792 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00036 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is approximately equal to the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TTN causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy (0.00039), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. c.835C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with TTN-related conditions without strong evidence for causality (e.g., Lange_2005, Campuzan_2015, Sanchez_2016, van Spaendonck-Zwart_2014). At-least two co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported in cis with this variant (TTN c.87491C>T, p.Pro29164Leu, Lange_2005; c.69086_69095del10, p.Arg23029ThrfsX9, van Spaendonck-Zwart_2014), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, demonstrating reduced binding to nbd1 in mutant cells (Lange_2005, Chaveau_2014). However, neither study provides quantitative data indicating the strength of the effect. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26516846, 24105469, 24569025, 24578547, 27930701, 20708934, 24558114, 15802564, 24271327, 24231549). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Six submitters classified the variant as a variant of uncertain significance, and two classified it as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

GeneDx RCV000172493 SCV000238291 not provided not provided 2014-09-04 no assertion provided clinical testing Missense variants in the TTN gene are considered 'unclassified' if they are not previously reported in the literature and do not have >1% frequency in the population to be considered a polymorphism. Research indicates that truncating mutations in the TTN gene are expected to account for approximately 25% of familial and 18% of sporadic idiopathic DCM; however, truncating variants in the TTN gene have been reported in approximately 3% of reported control alleles. There has been little investigation into non-truncating variants. (Herman D et al. Truncations of titin causing dilated cardiomyopathy. N Eng J Med 366:619-628, 2012) The variant is found in CARDIOMYOPATHY panel(s).
