Genes affected
PKP2 (HGNC:9024): (plakophilin 2) This gene encodes a member of the arm-repeat (armadillo) and plakophilin gene families. Plakophilin proteins contain numerous armadillo repeats, localize to cell desmosomes and nuclei, and participate in linking cadherins to intermediate filaments in the cytoskeleton. This gene may regulate the signaling activity of beta-catenin and is required to maintain transcription of genes that control intracellular calcium cycling including ryanodine receptor 2, ankyrin-B, triadin, and calcium channel, voltage-dependent, L type, alpha 1C. Mutations in this gene are associated with different inherited cardiac conditions including Arrythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, Brugada Syndrome, and Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation. A processed pseudogene with high similarity to this gene has been mapped to chromosome 12p13. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

The L847P variant in the PKP2 gene has been reported in at least two individuals in association with ARVC (Watkins et al., 2009; Walsh et al., 2017), although no segregation studies were described. This variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The L847P variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support a deleterious effect. Nevertheless, this variant has not been observed in a significant number of affected individuals, and it lacks both segregation and functional studies which would further clarify its pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: The PKP2 c.2540T>C (p.Leu847Pro) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent in 121406 control chromosomes and was reported in an affected individual in the literature, without strong evidence for causality (Watkins_2009). Taken together, until additional clinical and functional data becomes available, this variant is classified as VUS. -
