Description

In 6 unrelated probands of western European descent, Gerull et al. (2004) found that arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (609040) was related to a 235C-T transition in exon 2 of the PKP2 gene, causing an arg79-to-stop (R79X) mutation in the protein. At least 1 of the individuals had a positive family history and 1 had left ventricular as well as right ventricular involvement. All were male.

Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal at codon 79 (p.Arg79*) of the PKP2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in PKP2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15489853). This variant is clearly defined as a arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy causative allele (PMID: 21574009, 21606396). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6754). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
