Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 12P and 1B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Moderate BS2_Supporting

The NM_001005242.3(PKP2):​c.1867G>T​(p.Glu623*) variant causes a stop gained change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000342 in 1,461,856 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E623E) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 12-32821502-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-32821502-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 45054.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr12-32821502-C-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 5 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

The Glu667X variant has not been reported in the literature. It leads to a prema ture stop at codon 667, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent prot ein. The severity nature of the change combined with the fact that pathogenic no nsense variants are very common in the PKP2 gene makes it highly likely that the Glu667X variant is pathogenic. -
