A novel variant of TNNC1 associated with severe dilated cardiomyopathy causing infant mortality and stillbirth: a case of germline mosaicism.
Pediatric cardiomyopathies (CM) are rare and challenging to diagnose due to the complex and mixed phenotypes. With the advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS), variants in several genes associated with CM have been identified, such as Troponin C (TnC), encoded by the TNNC1 gene. De novo variants in TNNC1 have been associated with different types of CM, including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics recently added TNNC1 to their recommended list of genes for reporting secondary findings. In this study, we report a de novo variant, c.100G>C (p.Gly34Arg) in the TNNC1 gene identified in three siblings with a diagnosis of severe DCM causing infant death for one of the siblings and stillbirth in the other two pregnancies. The identification of the same de novo variant in all affected siblings is suggestive of germline mosaicism in this family.
期刊介绍:
The journal retains its traditional interest in evolutionary research that is of relevance to geneticists, even if this is not explicitly genetical in nature. The journal covers all areas of genetics and evolution,including molecular genetics and molecular evolution.It publishes papers and review articles on current topics, commentaries and essayson ideas and trends in genetics and evolutionary biology, historical developments, debates and book reviews. From 2010 onwards, the journal has published a special category of papers termed ‘Online Resources’. These are brief reports on the development and the routine use of molecular markers for assessing genetic variability within and among species. Also published are reports outlining pedagogical approaches in genetics teaching.
