Description

The p.R40K variant (also known as c.119G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the MYL2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 119. The arginine at codon 40 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and in HCM genetic testing cohorts; however, clinical details have been limited (Wang J et al. Eur J Heart Fail, 2014 Sep;16:950-7; Berge KE et al. Clin Genet, 2014 Oct;86:355-60; Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2017 02;19:192-203). 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.
