Genes affected

DSG2 (HGNC:3049): (desmoglein 2) This gene encodes a member of the desmoglein family and cadherin cell adhesion molecule superfamily of proteins. Desmogleins are calcium-binding transmembrane glycoprotein components of desmosomes, cell-cell junctions between epithelial, myocardial, and other cell types. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other desmoglein gene family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene have been associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, familial, 10. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

1652-12C>T in Intron 11 of DSG2: This variant is not expected to have clinical s ignificance because it has been identified in 0.4% (13/3106) of African American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http ://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs140850369). 1652-12C>T in intron 11 of DS G2 (rs140850369, allele frequency = 0.4%, 13/3106) -

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: DSG2 c.1652-12C>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0004 in 248862 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0052 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 21 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DSG2 causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.00025), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1652-12C>T in individuals affected with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Both laboratories classified the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Significance:Benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases was too high to be consistent with this variant causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -
