BACKGROUND: Pathogenic variants in MYH11 are associated with either heritable thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection (HTAAD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) syndrome, or megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS).
METHODS AND RESULTS: We report a family referred for molecular diagnosis with HTAAD/PDA phenotype in which we found a variant at a non-conserved position of the 5' donor splice site of intron 32 of MYH11 potentially altering splicing (NM_002474.3:c.4578+3A>C). Although its cosegregation with disease was observed, it remained of unknown significance. Later, aortic surgery in the proband gave us the opportunity to perform a transcript analysis. This showed a skipping of the exon 32, an RNA defect previously reported to be translated to an in-frame loss of 71 amino acids and a dominant-negative effect in the smooth muscle myosin rod. This RNA defect is also reported in 3 other HTAAD/PDA pedigrees.
CONCLUSION: This report confirms that among rare variants in MYH11, skipping of exon 32 is recurrent. This finding is of particular interest to establish complex genotype-phenotype correlations where some alleles are associated with autosomal dominant HTAAD/PDA, while others result in recessive or dominant visceral myopathies.
