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]

p.Arg833Cys in exon 15 of DSC2: This variant is not expected to have clinical si gnificance because it has been identified in 0.5% (43/8636) of East Asian chromo somes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs142410803). Arginine (Arg) at position 833 is not conserved in mammals or evolutionarily distant species and 1 mammal (cape elephant shrew) carries a c ysteine (Cys) at this position, further supporting that this change may be toler ated. -

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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Jan 23, 2018
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
