Genes affected
DSG2 (HGNC:3049): (desmoglein 2) This gene encodes a member of the desmoglein family and cadherin cell adhesion molecule superfamily of proteins. Desmogleins are calcium-binding transmembrane glycoprotein components of desmosomes, cell-cell junctions between epithelial, myocardial, and other cell types. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other desmoglein gene family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene have been associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, familial, 10. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Feb 05, 2024
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 33 of the DSG2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257, 31983221). This variant has been identified in 5/280842 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.

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 Uncertain:1
May 22, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 33 of the DSG2 protein (p.Asn33Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs727505205, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 199795). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DSG2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.

Collection Method:clinical testing

p.Asn33Ser (AAT>AGT): c.98 A>G in exon 3 of the DSG2 gene (NM_001943.3). The Asn33Ser variant in the DSG2 gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Asn33Ser results in a conservative amino acid substitution of one neutral, polar residue with another at a position that is not conserved across species. Therefore, in silico algorithms predict Asn33Ser does not alter the protein's structure/function. No pathogenic mutations have been reported in near proximity of Asn33Ser, indicating this region of the protein may be tolerant of change (Van der Zwaag P et al., 2009). Although these findings indicate that Asn33Ser is likely a benign variant, it was not reported in the 1000 Genomes database (Kersey P et al., 2010), and the NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Project has not identified Asn33Ser in approximately 6000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. With the information available at this time, we cannot definitively determine if Asn33Ser is a disease-causing mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in ARVC panel(s).

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1

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

The p.N33S variant (also known as c.98A>G), located in coding exon 3 of the DSG2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 98. The asparagine at codon 33 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a cardiomyopathy cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2017 Feb;19:192-203). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
