dbSNP rs727504509: PKP2:p.Gly784Gly (chr12-32796114-G-A) – ACMG Classification: Uncertain_significance (5 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 6P and 1B. PS3PP3PP5BS2_Supporting

The NM_001005242.3(PKP2):c.2352C>T(p.Gly784Gly) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000167 in 1,613,334 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 Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000885970: Functional evidence indicates that the c.2484C>T variant creates a cryptic splice site that causes a frame shift, which disrupts the last 54 amino acids, adds an additional 48 residues, and alters protein localization and function (Awad 2006 and Kim 2013)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. G784G) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

PKP2 (HGNC:9024): (plakophilin 2) This gene encodes a member of the arm-repeat (armadillo) and plakophilin gene families. Plakophilin proteins contain numerous armadillo repeats, localize to cell desmosomes and nuclei, and participate in linking cadherins to intermediate filaments in the cytoskeleton. This gene may regulate the signaling activity of beta-catenin and is required to maintain transcription of genes that control intracellular calcium cycling including ryanodine receptor 2, ankyrin-B, triadin, and calcium channel, voltage-dependent, L type, alpha 1C. Mutations in this gene are associated with different inherited cardiac conditions including Arrythmogenic Cardiomyopathy, Brugada Syndrome, and Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation. A processed pseudogene with high similarity to this gene has been mapped to chromosome 12p13. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points.

PS3

PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000885970: Functional evidence indicates that the c.2484C>T variant creates a cryptic splice site that causes a frame shift, which disrupts the last 54 amino acids, adds an additional 48 residues, and alters protein localization and function (Awad 2006 and Kim 2013).; SCV001393330: Studies have shown that this variant results in partial skipping of exon 12 and introduces a new termination codon (PMID: 17041889).; SCV002743678: RNA studies demonstrated splicing impact in the majority of transcripts derived from the variant allele (Awad MM et al. Hum. Mutat., 2006 Nov;27:1157; Kim C et al. Nature, 2013 Feb;494:105-10).; SCV005380346: At least one experimental study using iPSC cardiomyocyte cell lines homozygous for this variant showed that these cells exhibit characteristics of Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia (e.g. Wen_2015). PMID: 29961461

PP3

Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.

PP5

Variant 12-32796114-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-32796114-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 178879.

BS2

High AC in GnomAd4 at 5 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
