Genes affected
TMEM43 (HGNC:28472): (transmembrane protein 43) This gene belongs to the TMEM43 family. Defects in this gene are the cause of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia type 5 (ARVD5), also known as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy type 5 (ARVC5). Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is an inherited disorder, often involving both ventricles, and is characterized by ventricular tachycardia, heart failure, sudden cardiac death, and fibrofatty replacement of cardiomyocytes. This gene contains a response element for PPAR gamma (an adipogenic transcription factor), which may explain the fibrofatty replacement of the myocardium, a characteristic pathological finding in ARVC.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 25, 2022Variant summary: TMEM43 c.1120_1121delCT (p.Leu374ValfsX49) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00024 in 251428 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0016 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 192-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TMEM43 causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy phenotype (8.3e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Latino origin. c.1120_1121delCT has been reported in the literature as a secondary finding in individual(s) undergoing genetic testing for noncardiac reasons (Abicht_2021). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign and three ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite it as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
