Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP4
The NM_001943.5(DSG2):c.2960T>C(p.Val987Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000011 in 1,460,664 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V987F) has been classified as Likely benign.

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Variant of Uncertain Significance due to insufficient evidence: This missense variant is located in the cytoplasmic desmoglein repeat 4 of the DSG2 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/276188 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. -
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces valine with alanine at codon 987 of the DSG2 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 2/279952 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. -
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 987 of the DSG2 protein (p.Val987Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs727502991, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSG2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 163223). 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 not expected to disrupt DSG2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The p.V987A variant (also known as c.2960T>C), located in coding exon 15 of the DSG2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 2960. The valine at codon 987 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
