Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001186578 SCV001353041 uncertain significance Cardiomyopathy 2021-05-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant alters the translation initiation codon of the DSG2 mRNA. An alternate in-frame methionine downstream of the initiator methionine occurs at codon 179 in extracellular cadherin domain 2, after signal peptide and propeptide. This variant is expected to disrupt translation initiation and result in an absent or truncated protein product. 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 not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Although there is a suspicion for a pathogenic role, clinical relevance of loss-of-function DSG2 truncation and splice variants in autosomal dominant arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy is not yet clearly established. 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.
