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 submitterclinical testingHuman Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine-- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 07, 2022This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 736 of the DSC2 protein (p.Asn736Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs371950232, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 574320). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthOct 05, 2023This missense variant replaces asparagine with aspartic acid at codon 736 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 not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/251312 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. -
Familial isolated arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthOct 23, 2023Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This missense variant is located in the cytoplasmic domain of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/246072 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the pathogenicity of this variant conclusively. -
