Genes affected
DSC2 (HGNC:3036): (desmocollin 2) This gene encodes a member of the desmocollin protein subfamily. Desmocollins, along with desmogleins, are cadherin-like transmembrane glycoproteins that are major components of the desmosome. Desmosomes are cell-cell junctions that help resist shearing forces and are found in high concentrations in cells subject to mechanical stress. This gene is found in a cluster with other desmocollin family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene are associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia-11, and reduced protein expression has been described in several types of cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Ala267Pro variant in DSC2 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy and is absent from large population studies. Computational p rediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact t he protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathog enicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala267Pro variant is unc ertain. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 267 of the DSC2 protein (p.Ala267Pro). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504982). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt DSC2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 267 of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in a dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). This variant has been identified in 1/251240 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.A267P variant (also known as c.799G>C), located in coding exon 7 of the DSC2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 799. The alanine at codon 267 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was reported in individual(s) from dilated cardiomyopathy cohorts (Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2017 Feb;19:192-203; Mazzarotto F et al. Circulation, 2020 Feb;141:387-398). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
