Genes affected
PKP2 (HGNC:9024): (plakophilin 2) This gene encodes a member of the arm-repeat (armadillo) and plakophilin gene families. Plakophilin proteins contain numerous armadillo repeats, localize to cell desmosomes and nuclei, and participate in linking cadherins to intermediate filaments in the cytoskeleton. This gene may regulate the signaling activity of beta-catenin and is required to maintain transcription of genes that control intracellular calcium cycling including ryanodine receptor 2, ankyrin-B, triadin, and calcium channel, voltage-dependent, L type, alpha 1C. Mutations in this gene are associated with different inherited cardiac conditions including Arrythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, Brugada Syndrome, and Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation. A processed pseudogene with high similarity to this gene has been mapped to chromosome 12p13. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

PKP2 NM_004572.3 exon 11 p.His733Alafs*8 (c.2197_2202delinsG): This variant has been reported in the literature in several individuals with ARVC, segregating with disease in at least 4 affected family members (Syrris 2006 PMID:16415378, den Haan 2009 PMID:20031617, Fressart 2010 PMID:20400443, Xu 2010 PMID:20152563, Walsh 2017 PMID:27532257, Hoorntje 2018 PMID:30161220). This variant is not present in large control databases; of note, another variant with a similar amino acid impact (p.His733Profs*8) is present in 0.003% (5/129074) of European controls in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-32955433-GGGTGT-G). This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as pathogenic (Variation ID:45063). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. This variant represents a deletion of 6 nucleotides and an insertion of 1 nucleotide; this indel creates a premature stop codon 8 amino acids downstream from this location which results in an absent or abnormal protein. Loss of function variants are a known mechanism of disease for this gene (Rasmussen 2014 PMID:24704780). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

The variant NM_001005242.3:c.2066_2070del (chr12:32802499) in PKP2 was detected in 137 heterozygotes out of 58K WGS Icelanders (MAF= 0,118%). Following imputation in a set of 166K Icelanders (305 imputed heterozygotes) we observed an association with atrial fibrillation and flutter using 20168 cases and 351419 controls (OR= 2.31, P= 2.75e-05) and cardiomyopathy using 1974 cases and 365360 controls (OR= 4.11, P= 1.75e-04). This variant has been reported in ClinVar previously as pathogenic. Based on ACMG criteria (PVS1, PS4, PP5) this variant classifies as pathogenic.

The p.His733ProfsX8 variant in PKP2 has not been previously reported in individuals with ARVC or in the large population studies, though a similar variant (His733AlafsX8) has been reported in >20 individuals and is classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. This p.His733ProfsX8 rameshift variant is predicted to alter the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 733 and lead to a premature termination codon 8 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of PKP2 function is an established disease mechanism in individuals with ARVC. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic (http://personalizedmedicine.partners.org/Laboratory-For-Molecular-Medicine/).
