Genes affected
CASQ2 (HGNC:1513): (calsequestrin 2) The protein encoded by this gene specifies the cardiac muscle family member of the calsequestrin family. Calsequestrin is localized to the sarcoplasmic reticulum in cardiac and slow skeletal muscle cells. The protein is a calcium binding protein that stores calcium for muscle function. Mutations in this gene cause stress-induced polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, also referred to as catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia 2 (CPVT2), a disease characterized by bidirectional ventricular tachycardia that may lead to cardiac arrest.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineSep 18, 2013The 234+3A>G variant in CASQ2 has not been previously reported in individuals wi th diseases associated with this gene or in large population studies. This varia nt is located in the 5' splice region. Computational tools do not suggest an imp act to splicing, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pa thogenicity. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clinical signi ficance of this variant. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 02, 2021This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the CASQ2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CASQ2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs727502909, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of CASQ2-related disease (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 162819). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
