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 dysplasia 10 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 01, 2022ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188450). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257, 30790397; Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs553299589, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the DSG2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in DSG2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17105751, 31386562). -

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedresearchDonald Williams Parsons Laboratory, Baylor College of MedicineSep 17, 2014This splice site variant is categorized as deleterious according to ACMG guidelines (PMID:18414213). It was an incidental finding in our study, in a 4-year-old female with mixed neuroglial tumor. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 05, 2024The c.523+1G>C intronic variant results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 5 of the DSG2 gene. This variant has been reported in an individual indicated as having arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, but clinical details were limited (Bourfiss M et al. Circ Genom Precis Med, 2022 Dec;15:e003704). Another alteration affecting this nucleotide (c.523+1G>A) was detected in a cohort referred for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) genetic testing, and was also detected in a sudden cardiac arrest cohort (Walsh R et al. Genet. Med., 2017 02;19:192-203; Mellor G et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2017;10:e001686). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
