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]

Submissions by phenotype

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 9 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 13, 2022This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 314 of the PKP2 protein (p.Gly314Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs139903989, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239957). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest 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. -
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthDec 01, 2023This missense variant replaces glycine with glutamic acid at codon 314 of the PKP2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in 1 of 361 individuals affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (Oxford Molecular Genetics Laboratory). This variant has also been identified in 18/282390 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 02, 2019This variant has been reported in the literature in a patient with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC); although detailed clinical information was not provided (Walsh et al., 2017); Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 239957; Landrum et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31402444, 27532257) -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 11, 2024The p.G314E variant (also known as c.941G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the PKP2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 941. The glycine at codon 314 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was identified in 1 patient with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in a large study of pathogenicity of Mendelian variants in cardiomyopathy patients, but clinical details are limited (Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2017 Feb;19:192-203).This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
