Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 9 Pathogenic:9
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Lifecell International Pvt. Ltd | - | A Heterozygous Frameshift variant c.148_151delACAG in Exon 1 of the PKP2 gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Thr50fs*61 was identified. The observed variant is novel in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The reference base is not conserved across the species and in-silico predictions by Polyphen, SIFT are tolerated. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is high, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score. Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic [Variant ID : 45028]. The observed variation has previously been reported for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy by Costa, Sarah, et al., 2021. For these reasons this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Oct 10, 2023 | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr50Serfs*61) in the PKP2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PKP2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15489853, 23911551). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with arrythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 15489853, 16415378, 16567567, 17010805, 19302745, 20400443, 23347029, 24200905). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.145_148delCAGA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 45028). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | May 03, 2023 | The p.Thr50SerfsX61 variant in PKP2 (also described as c.145_148delCAGA; c.144_148delCAGA; p.S50fsX110; p.Thr50_Val51SerfsX60 in the literature) has been reported in >20 individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC; Gerull 2004 PMID: 15489853, Syrris 2006 PMID: 16415378, Dalal 2006a PMID: 16549640, van Tintelen 2006 PMID: 16567567, Dalal 2006b PMID: 17010805, Wu 2009 PMID: 19302745, Bhuiyan 2009 PMID: 20031616, Bauce 2010 PMID: 20129281, Xu 2010 PMID: 20152563, Fressart 2010 PMID: 20400443, Cox 2011 PMID: 21606396, Tisma-Dupanovic 2013 PMID: 23347029, Baskin 2013 PMID: 23812740, Caspi 2013 PMID: 24200905, Philips 2014 PMID: 24585727, Walsh 2017 PMID: 27532257, Te Riele 2017 PMID: 28069705, van Lint 2019 PMID: 31386562, Smith 2020 PMID: 32372669, Hirono 2020 PMID: 32600061, Stava 2022 PMID: 35653365, Goudal 2022 PMID: 35819174, LMM data), and in 1 individual with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM; Gigli 2019 PMID: 31514951), and has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 45028). This variant segregated with disease in >7 individuals across multiple families (Dalal 2006b PMID: 17010805, Wu 2009 PMID: 19302745, Bauce 2010 PMID: 20129281, Smith 2020 PMID: 32372669, Stava 2022 PMID: 35653365, LMM data), but it is also present in several reportedly unaffected relatives (age range: 52-74 , indicating possible reduced penetrance (Syrris 2006 PMID: 16415378, Wu 2009 PMID: 19302745, Bauce 2010 PMID: 20129281, Perrin 2013 PMID: 23810883, LMM data). Additionally, this variant has been identified in 0.006% (1/15282) of Latino/Admixed American and 0.003% (2/67984) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 50 and leads to a premature termination codon 61 amino acids downstream and is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the PKP2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant ARVC. Additionally, an in vitro functional study using human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes from an ARVC patient with the variant provide some evidence that this variant impacts protein function by disrupting desmosomal function and morphology and potentially recapitulating the ARVC phenotype in the culture dish (Caspi 2013 PMID: 24200905). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant ARVC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PP1_strong, PM2_Supporting, PVS1, PS3_Supporting. - |

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Feb 20, 2024 | The c.148_151delACAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the PKP2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 148 to 151, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T50Sfs*61). This alteration, alternatively reported as p.S50fsX110, has been reported in multiple subjects with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and has been shown to segregate with disease in at least one family (Gerull B et al. Nat. Genet., 2004 Nov;36:1162-4; Dalal D et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 2006 Oct;48:1416-24; Bauce B et al. Heart Rhythm, 2010 Jan;7:22-9; Fressart V et al. Europace, 2010 Jun;12:861-8; Baskin B et al. Hum. Genet., 2013 Nov;132:1245-52; Philips B et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol, 2014 Apr;7:230-6; Walsh R et al. Genet. Med., 2017 02;19:192-203; Hermida A et al. Eur. J. Heart Fail., 2019 Jun;21:792-800; Ruiz Salas A et al. Rev Esp Cardiol (Engl Ed), 2018 Dec;71:1018-1026). This variant has also been identified in a cohort of individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (Gigli M et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 2019 Sep;74:1480-1490). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. - |
