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]

The p.Gly286Val variant in DSC2 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 3/11544 Latino chromosomes by th e Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs19 9682735). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provid e strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinic al significance of the p.Gly286Val variant is uncertain. -

Variant summary: DSC2 c.857G>T (p.Gly286Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Cadherin-like domain (IPR002126) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.5e-05 in 251362 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00032 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 32-fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DSC2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Latino origin. c.857G>T has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (e.g. Lopes_2013). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glycine with valine at codon 286 of the DSC2 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 been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 37418234), in two individuals affected with sudden cardiac death (PMID: 32917565, 36293497), and in an individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25351510). This variant has been identified in 27/282756 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. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -
