Variant summary: TMEM43 c.403G>A (p.Glu135Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-05 in 251392 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The observed variant frequency is approximately 10-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TMEM43 causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy phenotype (8.3e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, c.403G>A has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy but has been reported in a healthy control individual (Kapplinger_2011). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 5 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 135 of the TMEM43 protein (p.Glu135Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs140347235, gnomAD 0.05%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TMEM43-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 466418). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TMEM43 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
Cardiomyopathy Benign:1
- -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
