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]

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The Gln326Pro v ariant in DSC2 has not been reported in the literature and was not detected in 8 ,600 European American and 4,400 African American chromosomes screened by the NH LBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/). This variant h as been identified in 3 individuals (2 with ARVC, 1 with DCM) tested by our labo ratory. One individual (with ARVC) was homozygous (an affected family member was heterozygous) and another individual (with ARVC) carried another likely pathoge nic variant in the same gene. The individual with DCM carried a second, likely p athogenic variant in a DCM gene. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, absence from the ge neral population is consistent with pathogenicity; however, homozygosity in 1 in dividual and the presence of a second, likely pathogenic variant in another indi vidual raise some doubt as to whether this variant can cause disease. Additional studies are needed to fully assess its clinical significance. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 326 of the DSC2 protein (p.Gln326Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs397517409, gnomAD 0.007%). 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: 46205). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). 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. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamine with proline at codon 326 of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/31398 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. -

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 glutamine with proline at codon 326 of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/31398 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. -
