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 Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingFulgent Genetics, Fulgent GeneticsJul 22, 2021- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 28, 2024This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 812 of the PKP2 protein (p.Asp812Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs200947767, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 22214898). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403313). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaAug 21, 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 16, 2023Variant summary: PKP2 c.2434G>A (p.Asp812Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 251480 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in PKP2 causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy (4e-05 vs 0.00065), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2434G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy (examples: Kapplinger_2011, Nakajima_2012, Anderson_2013). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23299917, 21636032, 22214898). Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJul 28, 2023This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 812 of the PKP2 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 two Japanese individuals affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 22214898). One of them was a compound heterozygote who also carried a pathogenic variant c.2489+1G>A in the same gene. This variant has also been identified in 15/282856 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 29, 2023The p.D812N variant (also known as c.2434G>A), located in coding exon 12 of the PKP2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2434. The aspartic acid at codon 812 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been detected in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), in individuals from an exome cohort without cardiac phenotypes provided, and in control populations (Nakajima T et al. Circ. J., 2012 Dec;76:737-43; Andreasen C et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2013 Sep;21:918-28; Kapplinger JD et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 2011 Jun;57:2317-27). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
