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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -11 ACMG points.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.115348786).

BP6

Variant 12-32878407-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr12-32878407-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 45080.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000691 (101/1461830) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00247 (98/39700). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00207. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 43 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.

BS2

High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 101 AD gene.
