Ambry Genetics | RCV002447871 | SCV002679866 | uncertain significance | Cardiovascular phenotype | 2019-08-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.E2856Q variant (also known as c.8566G>C), located in coding exon 35 of the TTN gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 8566. The glutamic acid at codon 2856 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species; however, glutamine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to create a new alternate splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. 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. |
