Genes affected
DSG2 (HGNC:3049): (desmoglein 2) This gene encodes a member of the desmoglein family and cadherin cell adhesion molecule superfamily of proteins. Desmogleins are calcium-binding transmembrane glycoprotein components of desmosomes, cell-cell junctions between epithelial, myocardial, and other cell types. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other desmoglein gene family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene have been associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, familial, 10. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Submissions by phenotype

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Uncertain:2
Oct 01, 2016
CSER _CC_NCGL, University of Washington
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:research

Found in patient having exome sequencing for an unrelated indication. No known history of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia. This interpretation considers GERP score and allele frequency data, in addition to published reports of the variant in the literature, available at the time of review. -

Dec 07, 2023
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 824 of the DSG2 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 14/280730 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. -

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 Uncertain:1
Jan 30, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 824 of the DSG2 protein (p.Arg824His). This variant is present in population databases (rs376858770, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSG2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496663). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DSG2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Dec 12, 2022
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
