GeneDx RCV000183532 SCV000235999 uncertain significance not provided 2014-07-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing p.Pro370Leu (CCC>CTC): c.1109 C>T in exon 8 of the LDB3 gene (NM_007078.2). Mutations in the LDB3 gene have been reported in patients with autosomal dominant familial dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), however it is currently not known what percentage of individuals with familial DCM have a mutation in the LDB3 gene (Hershberger et al., 2009). The P370L variant has not been published as a mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The P370L variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. In addition, the P370L variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. Nevertheless, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved across species. Moreover, in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. Furthermore, no missense mutations in nearby residues have been reported in association with DCM, indicating this region of the protein may be tolerant of change. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in CARDIOMYOPATHY panel(s).
