Description

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 9 of the MYH7 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with left ventricular non-compaction (PMID: 28798025). This variant has been identified in 1/251458 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Clinical relevance of loss-of-function MYH7 truncation variants in autosomal dominant cardiovascular disorders is not clearly established. 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.

Description

The p.Arg249X variant in MYH7 has been reported in one individual with left ventricular non-compaction (Miszalski-Jamka 2017). It has also been identified in 1/113734 European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 407183). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 249, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Although heterozygous loss-of-function (LOF) variants in MYH7 are not believed to be pathogenic for autosomal dominant forms of cardiomyopathy, there is evidence that can they lead to severe and early onset disease when present in trans with a second MYH7 variant (LMM data). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Arg249X variant is likely pathogenic for cardiomyopathy in an autosomal recessive manner. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2.
