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]

Reported in an individual with postpartum cardiomyopathy and in an individual with sudden cardiac arrest due to short-coupled variant of torsade de pointes (scTdP) who harbored additional cardiogenetic variants (PMID: 30279520, 24558114); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30279520, 24558114) -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 842 of the PKP2 protein (p.Val842Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs368633311, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with peripartum cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24558114, 30279520). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201959). 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. -

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

The PKP2 c.2524G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val842Ile. This variant was reported as uncertain significance in an individual with peripartum cardiomyopathy (family SA1, patient II:5 in Tables 1 and S2, van Spaendonck-Zwarts et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24558114). This variant is reported in 0.048% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-32945631-C-T) and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from likely benign to uncertain (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/201959). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: PKP2 c.2524G>A (p.Val842Ile) 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 6.8e-05 in 251428 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00068 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in PKP2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (0.00043), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.2524G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with peripartum cardiomyopath and ventricular fibrillation, without strong evidence for causality (Blancard_2018, van Spaendonch-Zwarts_2014). These report(s) do 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30279520, 24558114). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201959). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

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. -
