Genes affected
PRKAG2 (HGNC:9386): (protein kinase AMP-activated non-catalytic subunit gamma 2) AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a heterotrimeric protein composed of a catalytic alpha subunit, a noncatalytic beta subunit, and a noncatalytic regulatory gamma subunit. Various forms of each of these subunits exist, encoded by different genes. AMPK is an important energy-sensing enzyme that monitors cellular energy status and functions by inactivating key enzymes involved in regulating de novo biosynthesis of fatty acid and cholesterol. This gene is a member of the AMPK gamma subunit family. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and glycogen storage disease of the heart. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

This missense variant replaces leucine with arginine at codon 235 of the PRKAG2 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 8/191708 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. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Reported in ClinVar but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID#410720; Landrum et al., 2016)

PRKAG2 NM_016203.3 exon 5 p.Leu235Arg (c.704T>G): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.04% (7/15616) of African alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-151329205-A-C). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:410720). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.L235R variant (also known as c.704T>G), located in coding exon 5 of the PRKAG2 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 704. The leucine at codon 235 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available 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.
