Ambry Genetics RCV000617977 SCV000736691 uncertain significance Cardiovascular phenotype 2016-10-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R634L variant (also known as c.1901G>T), located in coding exon 13 of the DSC2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1901. The arginine at codon 634 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. A different alteration affecting this amino acid (p. R634H, c.1901G>A) was previously detected in a patient who reportedly had features of both long QT syndrome and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia; however, the patient also carried variants in other cardiac-related genes (Tisma-Dupanovic S et al. Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol. 2013;18:75-8). This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and leucine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
