Recurrent TTN metatranscript‐only c.39974–11T>G splice variant associated with autosomal recessive arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and myopathy

We present eight families with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and myopathy bearing a TTN intron 213 extended splice-site variant (NM_001267550.1:c.39974-11T>G), inherited in trans with a second pathogenic TTN variant. Muscle-derived RNA studies of three individuals confirmed mis-splicing induced by the c.39974-11T>G variant; in-frame exon 214 skipping or use of a cryptic 3′ splice-site effecting a frameshift. Confounding interpretation of...
