Genes affected
DSC2 (HGNC:3036): (desmocollin 2) This gene encodes a member of the desmocollin protein subfamily. Desmocollins, along with desmogleins, are cadherin-like transmembrane glycoproteins that are major components of the desmosome. Desmosomes are cell-cell junctions that help resist shearing forces and are found in high concentrations in cells subject to mechanical stress. This gene is found in a cluster with other desmocollin family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene are associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia-11, and reduced protein expression has been described in several types of cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingFulgent Genetics, Fulgent GeneticsAug 20, 2021- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 04, 2023This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 89 of the DSC2 protein (p.Ser89Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs141379407, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 21859740). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468381). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DSC2 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 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 30, 2023This missense variant replaces serine with leucine at codon 89 of the DSC2 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 an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 21859740), an individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25351510), an infant who died of sudden infant death syndrome (PMID: 27435932), and an individual suspected of having dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 30847666). This variant has been identified in 24/282254 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 testingGeneDxJun 18, 2021Has been reported in an individual with dilated cardiomyopathy (Garcia-Pavia et al., 2011); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (ClinVar Variant ID# 468381; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26582918, 27535533, 21859740) -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 23, 2021The p.S89L variant (also known as c.266C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the DSC2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 266. The serine at codon 89 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in individuals from cohorts with hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy; however, clinical details were limited and, in some cases, additional variants in cardiac-related genes were also detected (Garcia-Pavia P et al. Heart, 2011 Nov;97:1744-52; van Lint FHM et al. Neth Heart J, 2019 Jun;27:304-309; Lopes LR et al. J Med Genet, 2013 Apr;50:228-39). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and leucine is the reference amino acid in other 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 alteration remains unclear. -
