Description

The c.1378+1G>C intronic variant of the PKP2 gene is located at the canonical donor splice site of intron 5. This variant has been reported in numerous (>15) individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) (PMID: 27194543, 23810894, 23671136, 20400443, 33968641, 28588093, 30830208, 34469894, 30677492, 24704780, 23810883, 25820315). This variant was also identified in the proband, mother and brother in a family, while the mother and brother were asymptomatic carriers (PMID: 33238575). An alteration at the same position, c.1378+1G>A, has also been reported to cause ARVC (PMID:18662195). In-silico computational prediction tools suggest that the c.1378+1G>C variant likely leads to donor loss and disturbs normal splicing, resulting in an absent of disrupted protein product (PMID: 16199547). Loss of function variants are known to be pathogenic for PKP2 gene (PMID: 23911551, 15489853, 24704780, 29038103, 34120153). Loss of function variants downstream of this variant are reported to be pathogenic in multiple individuals with ARVC/D (PMID: 26701096, 15489853, 17010805, 19358943, 20152563) and classified as pathogenic by several ClinVar submitters (ClinVar ID: 517335, 202019, 202035). This variant is found to be rare (1/250730; 0.000003988) in the general population database, gnomAD and interpreted as pathogenic by several submitters in the ClinVar database (ClinVar ID: 45022). Therefore, the c.1378+1G>C variant in the PKP2 gene is classified as pathogenic.
