Genes affected

JUP (HGNC:6207): (junction plakoglobin) This gene encodes a major cytoplasmic protein which is the only known constituent common to submembranous plaques of both desmosomes and intermediate junctions. This protein forms distinct complexes with cadherins and desmosomal cadherins and is a member of the catenin family since it contains a distinct repeating amino acid motif called the armadillo repeat. Mutation in this gene has been associated with Naxos disease. Alternative splicing occurs in this gene; however, not all transcripts have been fully described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.542_556dup15 variant (also known as p.G181_L185dup), located in coding exon 3 of the JUP gene, results from an in-frame duplication of 15 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 542 to 556. This results in the duplication of 5 extra residues (GSPQL) between codons 181 and 185. This amino acid region is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant, c.542_556dup, results in the insertion of 5 amino acid(s) of the JUP protein (p.Gly181_Leu185dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with JUP-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 536628). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
