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]

Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 04, 2021This missense variant replaces threonine with isoleucine at codon 466 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 28254189). This variant has been identified in 4/279646 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 cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 28, 2023This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 466 of the DSG2 protein (p.Thr466Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs769137357, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSG2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 422458). 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 25, 2016A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the DSG2 gene. The T466I variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. This variant was not observed in approximately 6,000 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The T466I variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved across species and where Isoleucine is the wild type the opossum. Finally, in silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is pathogenic or rare benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 09, 2024The p.T466I variant (also known as c.1397C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the DSG2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1397. The threonine at codon 466 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a subject with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), who also carried a missense variant in HCN4 (Schweizer PA et al. J Am Coll Cardiol, 2017 03;69:1209-1210). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species; however, isoleucine is the reference amino acid in other 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. -
