Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000211738 SCV000205873 pathogenic Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy 2018-02-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Arg735X variant in PKP2 has been reported in 7 individuals with clinical f eatures of ARVC and segregated with disease in 3 affected relatives (Gerull 2004 , Bao 2013, Alcalde 2014, LMM data). This variant has been identified in 1/30780 South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnom ad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121434421) and has been reported in ClinVar (Vari ation ID 6755). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 735, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heter ozygous loss of function of the PKP2 gene is an established disease mechanism in ARVC. Transgenic mice expressing p.Arg735X mutant protein in cardiac tissue res ulted in exercise-dependent ARVC phenotype (Cruz 2015). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for ARVC in an autosomal dominant manner based. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1; PM2; PS4_Moderate; PP1; PS3_Supp orting.
Invitae RCV000007147 SCV000545246 pathogenic Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 9 2023-11-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg735*) in the PKP2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PKP2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15489853, 23911551). This variant is present in population databases (rs121434421, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with arrythmogenic ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) (PMID: 15489853, 24125834, 24967631). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6755). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002426495 SCV002727510 pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2022-04-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R735* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2203C>T), located in coding exon 11 of the PKP2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2203. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 11. This alteration has been reported in subjects with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) (Gerull B et al. Nat. Genet., 2004 Nov;36:1162-4; Bao J et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2013 Dec;6:552-6; Alcalde M et al. PLoS ONE, 2014 Jun;9:e100560; Ruiz Salas A et al. Rev Esp Cardiol (Engl Ed), 2018 Dec;71:1018-1026). Transgenic mice with cardiac-specific expression of this variant developed exercise-dependent right ventricular dysfunction resembling ARVC (Cruz FM et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 2015 Apr;65:1438-50). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
