Description
This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 1500 in the LMM domain in the C-terminal tail region of the MYH7 protein that forms the thick filament backbone and interacts with other proteins. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant may destabilize the MYH7 protein (PMID: 19854198, 22155079, 24047955). This variant has been reported in more than 10 individuals affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 15556047, 18660445, 24119082, 26383716, 28750076, 31317183; communication with external laboratories: ClinVar SCV000901918.1 and SCV000737223.3) and in multiple individuals with left ventricular noncompaction cardiomyopathy (communication with external laboratories: ClinVar SCV000199112.4 and SCV000737223.3). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
