GeneDx RCV000171888 SCV000233441 uncertain significance not provided 2014-06-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing p.Gly779Arg (GGA>AGA): c.2335 G>A in exon 15 of the DSC2 gene (NM_024422.3) A variant of unknown significance has been identified in the DSC2 gene. The G779R variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The G779R variant was not observed with any significant frequency in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. The G779R variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, mutations in nearby residues have not been reported in association with arrhythmia, indicating this region of the protein may tolerate change. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in ARRHYTHMIA panel(s).

Ambry Genetics RCV000618174 SCV000737962 likely benign Cardiovascular phenotype 2023-07-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, 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.
Invitae RCV000644646 SCV000766349 uncertain significance Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11 2022-11-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 779 of the DSC2 protein (p.Gly779Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs139290300, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25351510, 31737537). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191619). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on DSC2 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000778022 SCV000914133 uncertain significance Cardiomyopathy 2022-11-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glycine with arginine at codon 779 of the DSC2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 25351510). This variant has been identified in 11/282502 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.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000644646 SCV001282798 uncertain significance Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11 2018-01-13 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.
