RCV000223557 | SCV000271715 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2015-05-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Met757Thr var iant in DSG2 has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy and was absent from large population studies. Methionine (Met) at position 757 is not conserved in evolution and 1 mammal (elephant) carries a threonine (Thr), raising the possibility that this change may be tolerated. In summary, while th e clinical significance of the p.Met757Thr variant is uncertain, the presence of the variant amino acid in other species suggests that it is more likely to be b enign. |

RCV000771971 | SCV000904925 | uncertain significance | Cardiomyopathy | 2019-07-09 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces methionine with threonine at codon 757 of the DSG2 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact 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 not been identified 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. |

RCV000795727 | SCV000935198 | uncertain significance | Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 | 2021-08-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces methionine with threonine at codon 757 of the DSG2 protein (p.Met757Thr). The methionine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between methionine and threonine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSG2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228631). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The threonine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. |
