Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (Sarcomeric / CMH Series)

Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the Mendelian form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: left ventricular hypertrophy that is not explained by abnormal loading conditions, arising from a heritable defect of the cardiomyocyte contractile apparatus, in the absence of a syndromic, metabolic, infiltrative, or acquired predisposing condition. Most members are caused by variants in genes encoding sarcomere or sarcomere-associated proteins, and the group is conventionally enumerated as the numbered CMH series (OMIM phenotypic series PS192600). Members share one clinical endpoint - unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy with myocyte disarray and interstitial fibrosis, carrying a risk of sudden cardiac death - but differ in which component of the contractile machinery is disturbed, in the allele class that does it, and in the strength of the underlying gene-disease evidence.

Why this grouping

Grouped as a curated union rather than curated as a third Disease entry. DisMech already has an umbrella entry for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy at MONDO:0005045 (`Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy`, which covers the general mechanism and the full causal gene spectrum including phenocopies) and eleven separate entries for the individual familial forms. MONDO:0024573 sits between them, and a Disease entry for it would duplicate the umbrella's pathograph while asserting nothing the members do not already assert. A Grouping is the shape that adds information here: it records *which* curated entries constitute the familial/sarcomeric subset, *why* the boundary falls where it does, and *what* distinguishes each member from its siblings. Members are kept as separate Disease entries because they differ in the perturbed component of the contractile apparatus (thin filament regulation: TNNT2, TNNI3, TPM1; thick filament and lever arm: MYL3; the cross-bridge brake: MYBPC3; the Z-disc and the titin spring: TTN, TCAP, FLNC, NEXN), in the operative allele class (MYBPC3 haploinsufficiency from truncating alleles versus missense poison-peptide mechanisms; FLNC missense causing hypertrophy where FLNC truncation causes arrhythmogenic/dilated disease), and in gene-disease validity, which for several numbered loci is limited or unresolved. Only NECESSARY criteria are asserted; the sufficient direction is deliberately withheld. The MONDO definition's qualifying clause - "in the absence of predisposing conditions" - is precisely the part that cannot be reduced to a machine-checkable positive condition over the KB, and MONDO's own asserted descendant set for MONDO:0024573 shows what happens when the attempt is made: because it inherits the whole OMIM CMH phenotypic series it also subsumes Noonan syndrome, LEOPARD syndrome, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and cardiomyopathy-hypotonia-lactic acidosis syndrome, all of which are syndromic or metabolic phenocopies that the definition excludes. Any SUFFICIENT criterion built from "manifests hypertrophic cardiomyopathy" plus "carries a variant in a sarcomere gene" would sweep those in, and would also flag the MONDO:0005045 umbrella entry - this grouping's superclass - as a candidate member.

MONDO alignment & provenance

skos:exactMatch MONDO:0024573 · familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

The grouping concept corresponds to the MONDO familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy class as that class is defined ("hypertrophic cardiomyopathy caused by mutations in the genes encoding components of the sarcomere, in the absence of predisposing conditions"; Orphanet:155, OMIMPS:192600). exactMatch records the intended conceptual alignment; numbered CMH entities in MONDO without DisMech entries (CMH 1, 6, 10-19, 22-24, 27, 28, 30, 31) are curation gaps rather than evidence that the grouping concept is only a close match.

MONDO consistency: consistent Two divergences from MONDO's *asserted* descendant set, neither of which changes the concept. (1) Because MONDO:0024573 absorbs the OMIM CMH phenotypic series, its is_a descendants include syndromic and metabolic phenocopies - Noonan syndrome and the RASopathies, LEOPARD syndrome, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, myotonic dystrophy type 1, very-long-chain and multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency, cardiomyopathy-hypotonia-lactic acidosis syndrome - which the class definition's "in the absence of predisposing conditions" clause excludes. This grouping follows the definition, not the asserted descendant set, and excludes them. (2) MONDO asserts MONDO:0859372 (CMH 29, KLHL24) under this class although its mechanism is ubiquitin-ligase/proteostatic rather than sarcomeric; it is retained as a member because it is a non-syndromic familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, with the mechanistic divergence recorded on the member. The MONDO descendant set should therefore not be treated as an exhaustive DisMech curation gap list for this grouping.

Membership criteria

NECESSARY  (member ⇒ criteria)
Every member manifests hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - left ventricular hypertrophy that is not explained by abnormal loading conditions or by an acquired secondary cause - annotated either as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HP:0001639, or a descendant such as asymmetric septal hypertrophy) or as left ventricular hypertrophy (HP:0001712). Members must additionally be Mendelian (familial, most commonly autosomal dominant with variable and age-related penetrance); that clause is stated here in prose rather than as a structured leaf because, when this grouping was written, HAS_INHERITANCE was not machine-evaluable and an UNKNOWN leaf inside this conjunction would have masked the clauses that are checkable. The predicate now accepts an `inheritance_term` payload and is evaluated, so restoring the clause as a structured leaf is possible; doing so requires first checking that every member carries a bound inheritance block, and is left as a follow-up rather than done blind.
  • OR
    • HAS PHENOTYPE Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy HP:0001639
      Annotated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or one of its descendants (asymmetric septal, concentric, or apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy).
    • HAS PHENOTYPE Left ventricular hypertrophy HP:0001712
      Annotated with left ventricular hypertrophy. HP:0001712 is not a descendant of HP:0001639 in HPO, so it is asserted as a separate disjunct rather than relied on through closure.
NECESSARY  (member ⇒ criteria)
Every member's hypertrophy is a primary, heritable disorder of the cardiomyocyte contractile apparatus and its maladaptive remodelling response, rather than a response to pressure overload or to an infiltrative or storage process. In the KB this is recorded either as a curated cardiac muscle hypertrophy process annotation (GO:0003300, or a descendant such as cardiac muscle hypertrophy in response to stress) or as declared conformance to the cardiomyopathy_maladaptive_remodeling module. Either form of annotation satisfies the criterion; both are accepted because the numbered CMH entries were curated at different times and the module predates only some of them.

KLHL24-Related Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy DISEASE
Differentiating mechanism
The mechanistic outlier, and deliberately so. KLHL24 is a Cullin-3 E3 ubiquitin-ligase substrate adaptor, so CMH29 hypertrophy arises from dysregulated proteostasis and intermediate-filament turnover with polyglucosan body accumulation, not from a lesion of the contractile apparatus; inheritance is autosomal recessive rather than dominant. It is retained because MONDO asserts CMH29 under MONDO:0024573 and it is a non-syndromic, familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, but it is the member that the grouping's sarcomere-centred rationale fits least well, and a future decision to move it out would be defensible on the class definition alone.

Differentiating mechanism
Beta-cardiac myosin heavy chain (MYH7), the force-generating molecular motor of the thick filament itself, and the founding molecular diagnosis of the field (the R403Q missense variant, 1990). It is, with MYBPC3, one of the two commonest causes of the disease, and it is the mechanistic mirror image of its MYBPC3 sibling: where MYBPC3 disease is predominantly truncating and acts by haploinsufficiency (loss of the cross-bridge brake), MYH7 disease is predominantly missense and acts by a gain of contractile function in a stably expressed mutant motor — destabilization of the super-relaxed state, increased intrinsic force, and raised tension cost. Beta-cardiac myosin is the direct molecular target of the cardiac myosin inhibitors (mavacamten, aficamten). module: cardiomyopathy_maladaptive_remodeling MYH7 hgnc:7577

Ventricular regulatory myosin light chain (MYL2), which binds the myosin lever arm and tunes force and calcium sensitivity. One of the eight ClinGen-definitive HCM genes. Distinguished by two inheritance modes — the common autosomal dominant missense form (R58Q archetype) and a severe autosomal recessive infantile cardioskeletal form from biallelic loss of function — and, because MYL2 is expressed in slow-twitch skeletal muscle, by a possible cardioskeletal component. module: cardiomyopathy_maladaptive_remodeling MYL2 hgnc:7583

Alpha-cardiac actin (ACTC1), the thin-filament track for the myosin motor, and one of the eight ClinGen-definitive HCM genes. The lesion is a mutant actin incorporated into the thin filament that reduces actin-myosin interaction (stimulating the beta-myosin ATPase to only ~50% of wild type) rather than a myosin or Z-disc defect. As a thin-filament gene it follows the thin-filament clinical profile (milder hypertrophy, greater diastolic dysfunction, comparable arrhythmic risk) and is allelically pleiotropic with dilated cardiomyopathy, noncompaction, and atrial septal defect. module: cardiomyopathy_maladaptive_remodeling ACTC1 hgnc:143

It is the most direct myofilament calcium-sensitization lesion in the group — variants increase calcium sensitivity of contraction (e.g. A31S) rather than acting on cross-bridge force or the thick filament — and is distinguished by a reported fatal arrhythmogenic subtype with childhood ventricular fibrillation and aborted sudden death out of proportion to hypertrophy. module: cardiomyopathy_maladaptive_remodeling TNNC1 hgnc:11943

Thin-filament troponin T (TNNT2), the tropomyosin-anchoring subunit of the troponin complex. Variants act on the Ca2+-dependent regulation of cross-bridge cycling rather than on force generation itself, and the resulting phenotype is the group's clearest dissociation of hypertrophy from risk: wall thickening is often mild while myocyte disarray and sudden-death risk are disproportionate, so hypertrophy-based risk stratification underperforms in this member.

The linkage-defined member: a familial HCM locus mapped to 7p12.1-q21 in which no causal gene has been identified. It carries no gene descriptor for that reason, and it is the group's representative of the substantial fraction of familial HCM that remains genetically unexplained - a reminder that the grouping's boundary is drawn on mechanism and inheritance, not on possession of a named sarcomere variant.

Telethonin/T-cap (TCAP), which caps titin at the Z-disc. Like NEXN and FLNC this is a Z-disc rather than a cross-bridge lesion, but it is specifically the titin-anchoring and stretch-sensing node, and the DisMech entry curates detection of muscle stretch and T-tubule organisation as the perturbed processes.

Filamin C (FLNC), the Z-disc actin cross-linker. Unique among the members in that the phenotype is allele-class-dependent in the opposite direction to MYBPC3: non-truncating (missense) variants act through protein aggregation and impaired refolding to give hypertrophic disease, whereas FLNC truncating variants cause arrhythmogenic and dilated cardiomyopathy. Membership therefore holds for the non-truncating allele class only, which is how the DisMech entry is scoped. FLNC hgnc:3756

Alpha-tropomyosin (TPM1), the thin-filament regulatory strand itself. Variants perturb tropomyosin positioning over the actin myosin-binding sites, shifting thin-filament Ca2+ sensitivity across the whole regulatory unit rather than at a single troponin subunit. Distinguished from its thin-filament siblings by a documented digenic interaction with MYH7 and by a reported recessive form, so it is one of the few members where inheritance is not uniformly autosomal dominant.

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy 4 DISEASE
Differentiating mechanism
Cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MYBPC3), the brake on actomyosin cross-bridge cycling and the most frequently implicated gene in the group. Uniquely among the members, the dominant allele class is truncating and the operative mechanism is haploinsufficiency - transcript loss through nonsense-mediated decay and degradation of any residual truncated protein - rather than incorporation of a poison peptide into the sarcomere. This underlies its characteristically later onset in heterozygotes and its severe biallelic neonatal form, and it is why founder alleles recur at appreciable population frequency. MYBPC3 hgnc:7551

Cardiac troponin I (TNNI3), the inhibitory subunit that holds the thin filament off at low Ca2+. Variants weaken that inhibition, so the characteristic functional lesion is failure of relaxation rather than excess systolic force; TNNI3 is accordingly the member most associated with restrictive physiology and diastolic dysfunction, and the same gene causes primary restrictive cardiomyopathy at the allele level.

  Grouped as a curated union rather than curated as a third Disease entry.
  DisMech already has an umbrella entry for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy at
  MONDO:0005045 (`Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy`, which covers the general
  mechanism and the full causal gene spectrum including phenocopies) and
  eleven separate entries for the individual familial forms. MONDO:0024573
  sits between them, and a Disease entry for it would duplicate the umbrella's
  pathograph while asserting nothing the members do not already assert. A
  Grouping is the shape that adds information here: it records *which* curated
  entries constitute the familial/sarcomeric subset, *why* the boundary falls
  where it does, and *what* distinguishes each member from its siblings.

  Members are kept as separate Disease entries because they differ in the
  perturbed component of the contractile apparatus (thin filament regulation:
  TNNT2, TNNI3, TPM1; thick filament and lever arm: MYL3; the cross-bridge
  brake: MYBPC3; the Z-disc and the titin spring: TTN, TCAP, FLNC, NEXN), in
  the operative allele class (MYBPC3 haploinsufficiency from truncating alleles
  versus missense poison-peptide mechanisms; FLNC missense causing hypertrophy
  where FLNC truncation causes arrhythmogenic/dilated disease), and in
  gene-disease validity, which for several numbered loci is limited or
  unresolved.

  Only NECESSARY criteria are asserted; the sufficient direction is
  deliberately withheld. The MONDO definition's qualifying clause - "in the
  absence of predisposing conditions" - is precisely the part that cannot be
  reduced to a machine-checkable positive condition over the KB, and MONDO's
  own asserted descendant set for MONDO:0024573 shows what happens when the
  attempt is made: because it inherits the whole OMIM CMH phenotypic series it
  also subsumes Noonan syndrome, LEOPARD syndrome, Beckwith-Wiedemann
  syndrome, very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and
  cardiomyopathy-hypotonia-lactic acidosis syndrome, all of which are
  syndromic or metabolic phenocopies that the definition excludes. Any
  SUFFICIENT criterion built from "manifests hypertrophic cardiomyopathy" plus
  "carries a variant in a sarcomere gene" would sweep those in, and would also
  flag the MONDO:0005045 umbrella entry - this grouping's superclass - as a
  candidate member.

      numbered CMH entities in MONDO without DisMech entries (CMH 1, 6, 10-19,

        Two divergences from MONDO's *asserted* descendant set, neither of
        which changes the concept. (1) Because MONDO:0024573 absorbs the OMIM
        CMH phenotypic series, its is_a descendants include syndromic and
        metabolic phenocopies - Noonan syndrome and the RASopathies, LEOPARD
        syndrome, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, myotonic dystrophy type 1,
        very-long-chain and multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency,
        cardiomyopathy-hypotonia-lactic acidosis syndrome - which the class
        definition's "in the absence of predisposing conditions" clause
        excludes. This grouping follows the definition, not the asserted
        descendant set, and excludes them. (2) MONDO asserts
        MONDO:0859372 (CMH 29, KLHL24) under this class although its mechanism
        is ubiquitin-ligase/proteostatic rather than sarcomeric; it is retained
        as a member because it is a non-syndromic familial hypertrophic
        cardiomyopathy, with the mechanistic divergence recorded on the member.
        The MONDO descendant set should therefore not be treated as an
        exhaustive DisMech curation gap list for this grouping.

      truncating and acts by haploinsufficiency (loss of the cross-bridge brake),
      MYH7 disease is predominantly missense and acts by a gain of contractile
      function in a stably expressed mutant motor — destabilization of the
      super-relaxed state, increased intrinsic force, and raised tension cost.

      The eight genes with definitive gene-disease validity for hypertrophic

      remaining members sit outside that definitive set.

  - statement: >-
      Most genes historically reported as HCM genes do not survive systematic

  Scope decision. This entity was curated as a `kb/groupings/` union rather
  than as a Disease entry. DisMech already covers general hypertrophic
  cardiomyopathy at MONDO:0005045 and the individual familial forms as eleven
  separate entries; MONDO:0024573 is the class between them, and its curatable
  content is exactly the membership boundary and the per-member
  differentiators, which is what a Grouping records.

  Deliberately excluded, with reasons. (1) `Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy`
  (MONDO:0005045) - the superclass of this grouping, not a member; a grouping
  points down at its members. (2) `PRKAG2 Cardiac Syndrome` (MONDO:0800484) -
  a glycogen-storage cardiomyopathy that mimics HCM; MONDO does not place it
  under MONDO:0024573, and a storage disease is a predisposing condition under
  the class definition. (3) `Immunodeficiency 93 and Hypertrophic
  Cardiomyopathy` (FNIP1) and `Immunodeficiency 80 with or without Congenital
  Cardiomyopathy` - syndromic, with the cardiomyopathy as one feature of a
  multisystem immunodeficiency. (4)
  `Cardiomyopathy-Hypotonia-Lactic_Acidosis_Syndrome` (MONDO:0012557) - a
  MONDO descendant of MONDO:0024573, but a mitochondrial/metabolic syndrome,
  excluded on the same "predisposing condition" clause. (5) The RASopathy
  entries (Noonan syndrome and relatives) and other syndromic MONDO
  descendants inherited from the OMIM CMH phenotypic series - excluded for the
  same reason; see the mapping consistency note. (6) Left ventricular
  noncompaction and dilated/arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy entries that share
  causal genes with members (MYBPC3, TTN, FLNC, NEXN) - a shared gene is not
  shared membership, since the grouping is defined on the hypertrophic
  phenotype.

  How the advisory evaluator reads these criteria. Both criteria blocks are
  NECESSARY, and both are written as disjunctions so that every listed member
  resolves to SATISFIED rather than UNKNOWN on the annotations the entries
  actually carry: HP:0001639 is absent from CMH9 and CMH21 (which carry
  HP:0001712 instead, and HP:0001712 is not an HPO descendant of HP:0001639),
  and `conforms_to` edges to cardiomyopathy_maladaptive_remodeling are absent
  from CMH9 and CMH29 (which carry GO:0014898 and GO:0003300 instead). The
  Mendelian-inheritance clause is stated in prose only; that was because
  HAS_INHERITANCE evaluated to UNKNOWN and would have masked the checkable
  clauses in the conjunction, which no longer holds now that the predicate takes
  an `inheritance_term` payload - see the note on the first criteria block. The
  same reasoning is why no SUFFICIENT block is asserted.

  Curation gaps. CMH1 (MYH7), CMH10 (MYL2), CMH11 (ACTC1) and CMH13 (TNNC1) have
  now been curated and added as members, completing the ClinGen-definitive
  sarcomere-gene set in the KB (MYH7, MYBPC3, TNNT2, TNNI3, TPM1, MYL3, MYL2,
  ACTC1) together with the definitive thin-filament TNNC1. MONDO carries further
  numbered CMH entities without DisMech entries (CMH 6, 12, 14-19, 22-24, 27, 28,
  31; CMH30 is curated as the atrial-restricted Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy 30,
  Atrial); these are lower-value, most having limited or disputed gene-disease
  validity.
