Genes affected

JPH2 (HGNC:14202): (junctophilin 2) Junctional complexes between the plasma membrane and endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum are a common feature of all excitable cell types and mediate cross talk between cell surface and intracellular ion channels. The protein encoded by this gene is a component of junctional complexes and is composed of a C-terminal hydrophobic segment spanning the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane and a remaining cytoplasmic domain that shows specific affinity for the plasma membrane. This gene is a member of the junctophilin gene family. Alternative splicing has been observed at this locus and two variants encoding distinct isoforms are described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.86).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.904 with no splicing effect.

c.1464C>A (silent) in the JPH2 gene (NM_020433.4) The lab classifies this variant as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS). Given a lack a case data, lack of segregation and the fact that this is a silent change that doesn't affect the sequence of the protein, we consider this variant of uncertain significance and we do not feel it is suitable for assessing risk in healthy relatives ("predictive genetic testing"). This variant has not been identified in other individuals with cardiomyopathy. This variant occurs toward the end of the protein and not in one of the eight conserved MORN repeats that occur earlier in the gene. This variant is not present in exac. -

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403851). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with JPH2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 488 of the JPH2 protein (Silent). -
