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]

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Oct 29, 2023	This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 816 of the DSC2 protein (p.Val816Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs377700521, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy or arrhythmia (PMID: 27532257, 31484862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 46181). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DSC2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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 submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 12, 2018	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. -

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The Val816Met varia nt (DSC2) has not been reported in the literature nor previously identified by o ur laboratory. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conser vation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that the Val816Met variant may n ot impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. Additional studies are needed to fully assess its clinical si gnificance. -

Nov 11, 2023

The DSC2 c.2446G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val816Met. This variant was reported in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (Table S1B, Walsh et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27532257; Table S3, Mazzarotto et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31983221). This variant has also been reported in a patient with arrhythmia and in his unaffected father (Chen et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31484862). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/18-28648922-C-T). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
