Description

The Val1014Ile variant in DSG2 has been reported in 1 individual with DCM and wa s absent from 400 control chromosomes (Elliott 2010). In addition, this variant has been identified in 3/8352 European American chromosomes from a broad populat ion by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/). C omputational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conservation, AlignGVG D, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or against an impact t o the protein. Additional information is needed to fully assess the clinical sig nificance of the Val1014Ile variant.

Description

Variant summary: DSG2 c.3040G>A (p.Val1014Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-05 in 249792 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 7.2 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DSG2 (1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.3040G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing of individuals with a variety of cardiac phenotypes such as idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), DCM, exertion-related sudden unexplained death in the young (SUDY) (example, Elliott_2010, Pugh_2014, Anderson_2016, Mellor_2017, Walsh_2017) and as a Likely Pathogenic cardiomyopathy associated variant in at-least one individual with hypertension/stroke (example, Ng_2013). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At-least one of these reports mentions a co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant in an individual with exertion-related sudden unexplained death in the young (SUDY) (MYBPC3 c.2374T>C, p.Trp792Arg), providing supporting evidence for a benign role (Anderson_2016). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (VUS, n=5; Likely benign, n=1). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign.
