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]

| Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Mar 06, 2016 | Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Gly863Arg var iant has been reported in the literature in one individual with DCM and 1 indivi dual with ARVC (Elliott 2010, Cox 2011). This variant has been identified in 0.0 3% (33/121305) of chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http:// exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs147109895). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Gly863Arg variant may impact the protei n, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, while the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain, its f requency suggests that it is more likely to be benign. - |
| Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Sep 05, 2017 | Variant summary: The DSC2 c.2587G>A (p.Gly863Arg) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). However, these predictions have not been confirmed by any in vitro/vivo functional studies. This variant was found in 34/122138 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002784, which is approximately 28 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic DSC2 variant (0.00001), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. This variant has been reported in affected individuals with DCM or ARVD. One ARVD patient also carried PKP2 variant c.917_918delCC, suggesting variant of interest may not be the primary cause of the phenotype. However, since ARVD is a known clinical entity that sometimes follows a digenic inheritance, we cannot exclude the pathogenicy of variant of interest based on the co-occurrence of PKP2 variant c.917_918delCC. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as VUS-possibly benign unitl more information becomes available. - |

not provided Uncertain:3
| Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Nov 01, 2024 | In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Identified in multiple individuals with ARVC referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in published literature; many of these individuals also harbored different pathogenic variants in other ARVC-related genes (PMID: 21606396, 21636032, 23671136, 28341588, 31402444, 33652588); Reported in a patient with DCM and in a patient with ventricular fibrillation (PMID: 25163546, 29032884); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23671136, 28341588, 28471438, 23911551, 23299917, 21636032, 20716751, 37937776, 29032884, 31402444, 33652588, 25163546, 21606396) - |
| Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Aug 14, 2017 | The c.2587G>A; p.Gly863Arg variant (rs147109895) was observed in both patient and control individuals assessed for dilated cardiomyopathy (Elliott, 2010). In addition the p.Gly863Arg variant was reported in one patient analyzed for arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy, whom also carried a frameshift PKP2 allele associated with this disease (Cox, 2011). This variant is listed in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) with a frequency of 0.06 percent in the South Asian population (identified on 19 out of 30,770 chromosomes), and is listed in the ClinVar database with uncertain significance (Variation ID: 46183). The glycine at position 863 is highly conserved and computational analyses of the p.Gly863Arg variant on protein structure and function indicate a deleterious effect (SIFT: damaging, MutationTaster: disease causing, PolyPhen-2: probably damaging). Altogether, there is not enough evidence to classify the p.Gly863Arg variant with certainty. - |

| Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina | Apr 27, 2017 | 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). 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. - |
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
| Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Dec 13, 2023 | This missense variant replaces glycine with arginine at codon 863 of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, 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, in two individuals affected with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, in an individual suspected to be affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and in an individual who experienced a idiopathic ventricular fibrillation event (PMID: 20716751, 28341588, 29032884, 30847666, 33652588). This variant has also been reported in another individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy who also carried a pathogenic variant in the PKP2 gene (PMID: 21606396) and in an individual suspected to be affected with dilated cardiomyopathy who also carried a pathogenic variant in the SCN5A gene (PMID: 30847666). This variant has been identified in 74/282526 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Although this variant allele frequency is thought to be higher than expected for DSC2-related disorders, additional studies are necessary to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |

Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
| Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Sep 23, 2021 | 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. - |
