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]

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 9 Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing;provider interpretation | Geisinger Autism and Developmental Medicine Institute, Geisinger Health System | Nov 27, 2017 | This 6 year old male with autism spectrum disorder was found to carry a paternally-inherited expected pathogenic variant in the PKP2 gene, which confers an increased risk of developing arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. Given his age, we would not expect him to exhibit any features of the condition at this time, though a cardiac evaluation is pending. The patient's father's cardiac MRI has thus far been normal; he is 31 years old at time of report and cardiac evaluation. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Oct 12, 2019 | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly560Trpfs*12) in the PKP2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in PKP2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15489853, 23911551). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PKP2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 517335). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). - |
Cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Apr 28, 2017 | The p.Gly560fs variant in PKP2 has not been previously reported in individuals w ith cardiomyopathy or in large population studies, though the ability of these s tudies to accurately detect indels may be limited. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 560 and leads to a premature termination codon 12 amino acids downstrea m. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. F rameshift and other truncating variants in PKP2 are strongly associated with arr hythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. In summary, although additional st udies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Gly560fs variant is likely pathogenic. - |
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | May 26, 2023 | The c.1677dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 7 of the PKP2 gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 1677, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.G560Wfs*12). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. - |
