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 p.R702H variant (also known as c.2105G>A), located in coding exon 13 of the JUP gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2105. The arginine at codon 702 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported as a secondary cardiac variant in an exome cohort (Ng D et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2013 Aug;6:337-46). This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs200690479. Based on data from ExAC, the A allele has an overall frequency of <0.01% (6/104582). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 702 of the JUP protein (p.Arg702His). This variant is present in population databases (rs200690479, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 178849). 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 tolerated. 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. -

The p.Arg702His variant in JUP has been identified by our laboratory in 1 Caucas ian individual with CPVT. However, this individual carried a pathogenic variant in RYR2, and the p.Arg702His variant was also found in an apparently unaffected member of the same family. This variant has also been identified in 8/66036 Euro pean chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadins titute.org; dbSNP rs200690479). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg702His variant is uncertain. -
