Invitae RCV000700406 SCV000829159 uncertain significance Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 2024-01-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 171 of the DSG2 protein (p.Leu171Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs199926617, gnomAD 0.03%). 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: 577605). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DSG2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001192198 SCV001360222 uncertain significance Cardiomyopathy 2019-09-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces leucine with phenylalanine at codon 171 of the DSG2 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 not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 7/279630 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001193615 SCV001362564 uncertain significance not specified 2019-11-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: DSG2 c.513G>T (p.Leu171Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the second cadherin repeat (IPR002126) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 248796 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.513G>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with exertional rhabdomyolysis, hematuria/proteinuria and episodic pain syndrome, who also carried other pathogenic and potentially pathogenic variants that could explain his phenotype (Sambuughin_2018). This report does not provide an unequivocal conclusion about association of the variant with Cardiomyopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. A ClinVar submission (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
Ambry Genetics RCV002343523 SCV002646630 likely benign Cardiovascular phenotype 2021-11-16 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.
