Ambry Genetics	RCV000157334	SCV000319471	uncertain significance	Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection	2023-01-20	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The c.3766_3768delAAG variant (also known as p.K1256del) is located in coding exon 27 of the MYH11 gene. This variant results from an in-frame AAG deletion at nucleotide positions 3766 to 3768. This results in the in-frame deletion of a lysine at codon 1256. This variant, sometimes described as c.3787_3789delAAG (p.K1236del), has been reported in individuals with thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD) and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), including segregation with disease in at least one family (Proost D et al. Hum. Mutat., 2015 Aug;36:808-14; Imai Y et al. Int. J. Cardiol., 2015 Sep;195:290-2; Yeung KK et al. Hum. Mutat., 2017 Apr;38:439-450; Overwater E et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 09;39:1173-1192; Ambry internal data). In another large family affected with TAAD and PDA, eight affected family members were found to carry this variant, while three affected family members tested negative for the variant (Harakalova M, Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2013 May; 21(5):487-93). In addition, this alteration was identified twice in a cohort of individuals referred for aortopathy panel testing, one of whom had aortic dilation and dissection and also carried the FBN1 p.T2149Ifs*11 mutation (Wooderchak-Donahue W et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A, 2015 Aug;167A:1747-57). A mouse model for this alteration demonstrated a conflicting impact (Negishi K et al. Sci Rep, 2022 May;12:8844). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Invitae	RCV000466385	SCV000543703	pathogenic	Aortic aneurysm, familial thoracic 4	2024-01-29	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant, c.3787_3789del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the MYH11 protein (p.Lys1263del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has been observed in individuals with clinical features of autosomal dominant MYH11-related conditions (PMID: 22968129, 25944730, 26056961, 29907982, 30675029; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.3766_3768delAAG (p.Lys1256del). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 180420). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects MYH11 function (PMID: 28074631). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

This variant is also known as c.3766_3768delAAG, p.Lys1256del based on a different transcript NM_002474.2. A functional study has shown that this variant has subtle impact on the subcellular localization of MYH11 protein (PMID: 28074631), however, clinical relevance of this observation is not clear. This variant has been reported in four individuals from three families, who were affected with thoracic aortic aneurysms (PMID: 22968129, 26056961). However, in one of these families, this variant was not detected in an affected family member (PMID: 22968129). This variant has been reported in several unrelated individuals affected with thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection (PMID: 25907466, 28074631, 28391405, 29510914, 29907982, 30675029, doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-1548216/v1), as well as in two individuals referred for aortopathy genetic testing (PMID: 25944730). This variant has also been identified in 13/282182 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In summary, although this variant has been observed in multiple affected individuals, it has also been observed in the general population, and family studies are inconclusive as to whether this variant segregates with the observed phenotype. The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV000157334	SCV002570673	likely pathogenic	Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection	2024-01-16	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: MYH11 c.3787_3789delAAG (p.Lys1263del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove one amino acid from the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.5e-05 in 1613080 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 3-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MYH11 causing Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms And Dissections phenotype (1.3e-05). While this typically suggests that the variant is a benign polymorphism, due to variable age of onset, no conclusions can be made regarding variant significance. c.3787_3789delAAG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms And Dissections, and Patent Ductus Arteriosus (e.g. Harakalova_2013, Imai_2015, Wooderchack-Donahue_2015, Yeung_2017, Overwater_2018, Hicks_2018, Renner_2019, Duan_2023). Segregation data is present for several families. In one family with four individuals affected with PDA and two affected with TAAD, there was one individual with PDA and one individual with TAAD who did not have this variant, suggesting lack of segregation (Harakalova_2013). However in a second family, all affected members carried the variant (n=3) while unaffected members (n=4) did not (Imai_2015). A co-occurrence with at least one other pathogenic variant has been reported (FBN1 c.6664delC, p.Tyr2149fs; Wooderchack-Donahue_2015). A publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function in a mouse model and found that heterozygous mice developed aortic dissections and intramural haematomas when stimulated with angiotensin II, although without stimulation neither heterozygous nor homozygous mice experienced aortic dissection when observed for a period of over 18 months (Negishi_2022). Additionally, transdifferentiated smooth muscle cells derived from an aortic aneurysm patient with the variant were found to have abnormal contractile cytoskeleton formation compared to cells from patients without a proven pathogenic variant and healthy controls (Yeung_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37644562, 22968129, 29510914, 26056961, 35614093, 29907982, 30675029, 25944730, 28074631). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 180420). Based on the conflicting nature of the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
