Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. p.Arg9Cys (c.25 C>T) The variant has been seen in at least one case of familial DCM with strong segregation and experimental data. Schmitt et al (2003) sequenced PLN in 20 individuals with familial DCM and found p.Arg9Cys in one of them. Five affected family members were available for genotyping and they all tested positive for this variant. Two of these individuals were fourth degree relatives to each other and several were third degree relatives to one another. The LOD score was 4.04. In silico analysis with PolyPhen-2 predicts the variant to be probably damaging. The arginine at codon 9 is completely conserved across species, and neighboring amino acids are highly conserved. The PLN gene encodes phospholamban, a transmembrane phosphoprotein that inhibits the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2 adenosine triphosphatase (SERCA2a) pump. Schmitt et al (2003) reported that transgenic mice with the p.Arg9Cys variant had heart failure and early death. In vitro studies showed constitutive inhibition of SERCA2a. There was a dominant negative effect in which the mutant protein trapped protein kinase A, which then failed to phosphorylate wildtype phospholamban. Calcium transients were prolonged and myocyte relaxation was delayed. In total the variant has not been seen in ~6600 published controls and individuals from publicly available population datasets. There is no variation at codon 9 listed in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project dataset, which currently includes variant calls on ~6500 Caucasian and African American individuals (as of February 8th, 2013). Note that this dataset does not match the patient's ancestry. Interestingly, there is actually only one nonsynonymous variant in PLN listed in the entire ESP dataset (p.Ile14Arg) and that is present in only 1 of ~6500 individuals. p.Arg9Cys is listed in 1000 genomes, but only in reference to the dbSNP entry (rs111033559) which in turn points to a clinical OMIM submission. Thus it is not noted as present in general population samples in either of these databases. The variant was not observed in the following published control samples: Schmitt et al (2003) did not observe the variant in 100 reportedly normal individuals. -
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Published functional studies demonstrate this variant leads to a complete loss of function in both humans and transgenic mouse models (Schmitt et al., 2003; Gramolini et al., 2008; Schmitt et al., 2009; Ha et al., 2011; Ceholski et al., 2012a; Ceholski et al., 2012b); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23308118, 25593317, 23989713, 23302633, 15765133, 26917049, 25928149, 33978571, 30638982, 33265898, 32755452, 34199719, 32393743, 30012515, 32603312, 31325238, 27239561, 22427649, 22707725, 21282613, 26183555, 28102477, 18056057, 17010801, 25651173, 19139388, 29119312, 29447731, 29752948, 31402444, 35297759, 12610310) -

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1P Pathogenic:2

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 9 of the PLN protein (p.Arg9Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 12610310, 25928149, 26917049; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13636). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PLN function (PMID: 12610310, 21282613, 22427649, 22707725, 25593317). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Primary dilated cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
The p.Arg9Cys variant in PLN has been reported in 2 individuals with DCM and seg regated with disease in 7 affected relatives from 1 family, including 3 obligate carriers (Schmitt 2003, Truszkowska 2015). Our laboratory has also identified o ne de novo occurrence of this variant in a child with ARVC. The p.Arg9Cys varian t was absent from large population studies, but is listed in dbSNP without frequ ency information (rs111033559). Transgenic mice expressing this variant develop DCM (Schmitt 2003, Schmitt 2009) and multiple functional studies support that th is variant has a severe impact on protein function (Gramolini 2007, Schmitt 2009 , Ha 2011, Ceholiski 2012a, Ceholiski 2012b, Abrol 2015). In summary, this varia nt meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant DCM (http://www.partners.org/personalizedmedicine/LMM) based upon segregation studie s and functional evidence. -
