Genes affected

DSG2 (HGNC:3049): (desmoglein 2) This gene encodes a member of the desmoglein family and cadherin cell adhesion molecule superfamily of proteins. Desmogleins are calcium-binding transmembrane glycoprotein components of desmosomes, cell-cell junctions between epithelial, myocardial, and other cell types. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other desmoglein gene family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene have been associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, familial, 10. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jul 03, 2023	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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228629). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29178656). This variant is present in population databases (rs753406968, gnomAD 0.05%). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 509 of the DSG2 protein (p.Asp509Asn). -

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Asp509Asn var iant in DSG2 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy , but has been identified in 4/8616 of East Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggre gation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). Aspartic acid (Asp) at position 509 is not conserved in mammals or evolutionarily distant species and 3 species (squirrel, ferret, and American alligator) carry an asparagine (Asn) a t this position, raising the possibility that this change may be tolerated. Addi tional computational prediction tools suggest that the p.Asp509Asn variant may n ot impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Asp509As n variant is uncertain, the presence of the variant amino acid in multiple other species suggests that it is more likely to be benign. -

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 509 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 been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29178656). This variant has aslo been identified in 11/249432 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. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
