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 2578-10_2578-9insT variant in PKP2 has been identified by our laboratory in 1 adult of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry with HCM. In addition, this variant has bee n identified in 2/8254 European American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequenci ng Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs397517024). This variant is located in the 3' splice region. Computational tools do not suggest an impact to splicing, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out patho genicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the 2578-10_2578-9insT varian t is uncertain. -

Variant summary: PKP2 c.2578-10dupT alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00035 in 251428 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in PKP2 causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy (0.00035 vs 0.00065), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2578-10dupT in individuals affected with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 45074). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
