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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1482A>G variant (also known as p.S494S), located in coding exon 6 of the PKP2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1482. This nucleotide substitution does not change the serine at codon 494. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis for this alteration is inconclusive. In addition, coding exon 6 is alternatively spliced, and the predominant isoform in human cardiac tissue, PKP2A, does not include this exon (Gandjbakhch E et al. Heart. 2011;97(10):844-9). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
