Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Feb 21, 2018 | The PKP2 c.418T>A; p.Ser140Thr variant (rs727503373) has been reported in a single individual with dilated cardiomyopathy (Elliott 2010). The p.Ser140Thr variant is listed in the genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) with an overall population frequency of 0.0004% (identified on 1 out of 246,172 chromosomes) and is classified as a variant of unknown significance in ClinVar (ID: 164969). The serine at position 140 is moderately conserved, considering 8 species, and computational analyses of the effects of the p.Ser140Thr variant on protein structure and function do not predict a deleterious effect (SIFT: tolerated, PolyPhen-2: benign). Another variant affecting the same codon, p.Ser140Phe, has also been reported in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (Gerull 2004), and is enriched in ARVC patients compared to healthy controls (Christensen 2010); however, its prevalence in population genetic databases (0.4% in non-Finnish Europeans in gnomAD) and in healthy controls (Olfson 2015) suggests that it is at most disease modifying rather than pathogenic (Elliott 2010). Based on the available information, the clinical significance of the p.Ser140Thr variant cannot be determined with certainty. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Sep 27, 2013 | Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The Ser140Thr varia nt in PKP2 has been reported in the literature in one patient with DCM and was a bsent from controls (400 chromosomes, Elliott 2010). This variant has not been i dentified in large population studies (NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project). Computat ional analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, Poly Phen2, and SIFT) predict this variant may be tolerated. The wild-type residue at this position is not well conserved and the variant residue has been observed i n at least one distant species (Chicken), suggesting the mutation may be tolerat ed. Of note, another variant at the same position (Ser140Phe) has been reported in both individuals with ARVC as well as healthy controls and is thus unlikely to be a primary cause of disease, but a modifying role cannot be ruled out. In s ummary, more data are needed to determine the clinical significance of this vari ant. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jul 19, 2018 | Variant summary: PKP2 c.418T>A (p.Ser140Thr) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 246572 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.418T>A, has been reported in the literature in at least one affected individual with Arrhythmia (Elliott_2010). This report does not provide an unequivocal conclusion about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. - |

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Sep 29, 2023 | This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 140 of the PKP2 protein (p.Ser140Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs727503373, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20716751). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 164969). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. - |
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Dec 01, 2023 | This missense variant replaces serine with threonine at codon 140 of the PKP2 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 been reported in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20716751). This variant has been identified in 2/251368 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. - |
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Jan 17, 2024 | This missense variant replaces serine with threonine at codon 140 of the PKP2 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 been reported in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 20716751). This variant has been identified in 2/251368 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. - |
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Dec 04, 2020 | The p.S140T variant (also known as c.418T>A), located in coding exon 3 of the PKP2 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 418. The serine at codon 140 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been detected in a dilated cardiomyopathy cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Elliott P et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2010 Aug;3:314-22). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and threonine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
