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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 26, 2018This 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). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
not specified Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 16, 2017The p.Pro717Leu variant in PKP2 has been reported in 1 adult with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (AVRC) (Ohno 2013). This variant has also been identified in 0.1% (24/18868) of East Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregati on Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs144018320). This variant has been reported in Clinvar: (Variant ID 374966) with conflicting inter pretations. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest tha t the p.Pro717Leu variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signifi cance of the p.Pro717Leu variant is uncertain. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 17, 2023Variant summary: PKP2 c.2150C>T (p.Pro717Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0033 in 328700 control chromosomes, including 9 homozygotes (gnomAD and jMorp databases (Tadaka_2021). The observed variant frequency is approximately 5.02 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PKP2 causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.00065), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.2150C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy, however without strong evidence for causality (e.g., Nakajima_2012, Wada_2017). These reports therefore do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33179747, 22214898, 29178656). Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have reported the variant with conflicting assessments: 3 classified the variant as likely benign, and 3 classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 18, 2019This 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. -
