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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

PM1

In a modified_residue Phosphoserine (size 0) in uniprot entity PKP2_HUMAN

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.27837878).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000506 (74/1461824) while in subpopulation MID AF= 0.00208 (12/5766). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0012. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 45 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

BS2

High AC in GnomAd4 at 5 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 155 of the PKP2 protein (p.Ser155Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs141438322, gnomAD 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PKP2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 45079). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

The p.Ser155Thr variant in PKP2 has been identified by our laboratory in 1 Cauca sian adult with HCM, who carried a possibly disease-causing variant in another g ene. It has also been identified in 2/66652 European chromosomes and 2/11576 Lat ino chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinst itute.org; dbSNP rs141438322). Computational prediction tools and evolutionary c onservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein, thoug h this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summar y, the clinical significance of the p.Ser155Thr variant is uncertain. -

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces serine with threonine at codon 155 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 not been reported in individuals affected with PKP2-related cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 15/282824 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces serine with threonine at codon 155 of the PKP2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy; this individual also carried an additional likely pathogenic splice variant in the same gene (PMID: 37418234). This variant has also been reported in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 34137518). This variant has been identified in 15/282824 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. -

The c.464G>C (p.S155T) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the PKP2 gene. This alteration results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 464, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 155 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
