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]

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 137 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). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 19863551). This variant has been identified in 1/251166 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. -

The p.Glu137Lys variant in PKP2 has been identified in 1 Caucasian individual wi th a suspected diagnosis of ARVC/D (Barahona-Dussault 2010) and has been identif ied in 1/66098 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, h ttp://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs781739949). Computational prediction tool s and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impa ct to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Glu137Lys vari ant is uncertain. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 137 of the PKP2 protein (p.Glu137Lys). The glutamic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and lysine. This variant is present in population databases (rs781739949, ExAC 0.002%). This variant has been observed in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy¬†(PMID:¬†19863551). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229146). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
