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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.834

Jul 20, 2012

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The Tyr282His variant in DSC2 has not been reported in the literature nor previo usly identified in large and broad European American and African American popula tions by NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS). This low frequency is consistent with a disease causing role but insufficient to est ablish this with confidence. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid prop erties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to dete rmine pathogenicity. However, this variant is present in 2 reportedly unaffecte d relatives and has not been observed in isolation in an affected individual, ra ising the possibility that only modifies disease or may not be disease causing. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clinical significance of th e Tyr282His variant. -

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11 Uncertain:1

Nov 15, 2023

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 282 of the DSC2 protein (p.Tyr282His). This variant is present in population databases (rs397517405, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 46198). 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 expected to disrupt DSC2 protein function with a positive 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. -

Familial isolated arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia Uncertain:1

Jul 19, 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 tyrosine with histidine at codon 282 of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with DSC2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251378 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. -
