Ambry Genetics	RCV000243170	SCV000317781	likely benign	Cardiovascular phenotype	2020-03-10	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: 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.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	RCV001080090	SCV000408207	uncertain significance	Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10	2018-01-12	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.

Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford University	RCV000037305	SCV000280085	uncertain significance	not specified	2013-04-25	no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. Based on the information reviewed below, we classify it as a variant of unknown significance. This variant has previously been reported in one proband with ARVC who also carried a premature stop codon in PKP2, and the DSG2 variant was categorized as a variant of unknown significance (Fressart et al. 2010). There is no published segregation data. This is a non-conservative amino acid change, resulting in the replacement of a positively-charged Arginine with a nonpolar Leucine. The Arginine at this location is highly conserved across mammalian species, but it is a Proline in birds and the amino acid varies across fish species. This variant is in the cadherin domain. Variation at nearby residues has been associated with ARVC, which may support the functional importance of this region of the protein: Val149Phe, Asp154Glu (HGMD professional version as of January 17, 2014). Kapplinger et al. have proposed a “hot spot” for DSG2 variants between amino acids 24-388 in patients with ARVC but not in controls. This variant does fall within that hot spot. In silico analysis with PolyPhen-2 (http://genetics.bwh.harvard.edu/pph2/) predicts the variant to be “Probably Damaging” with a score of 0.983. In total the variant has been seen in 9 out of over 60,000 published controls and individuals from publicly available population datasets. This variant is present in 9 Caucasian individuals in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project dataset (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/), which currently includes variant calls on ~4100 Caucasian and ~1900 African American individuals. Furthermore, a Arg146Cys variant at the same amino acid is present in one African-American individual. The phenotype of the ESP individuals is not publicly available, however the cohorts that were merged to create this dataset were all either general population samples or samples recruited for common cardiovascular disease such as hypertension. The variant is present in dbSNP (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/SNP) as rs113451409, submitted by 6 different sequencing projects or labs. It is not present in 1000 Genomes (http://browser.1000genomes.org/index.htm) as of 1/26/2015. The variant was not observed in published controls: 300 Caucasian controls (Fressart et al. 2010). There are 37 individuals in ExAc with this variant and, of these, 1 of them is Latino, 2 are African, 1 is “other”, and 33 are Caucasian.
