Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy
Gene: DESreviewed by ClinGen Expert panel (published in 2021 PMID: 33831308) - MODERATE.
From PMID 33831308: DES was initially proposed as an ARVC gene based on data from 27 Dutch individuals in five families segregating a rare missense variant (NM_001927.4(DES):c.38C>T; p.Ser13Phe). Cases had right ventricular involvement consistent with ARVC but also conduction disease which is atypical for ARVC. Additional families carrying DES LP/P variants with a clinical ARVC diagnosis as well as families with left-predominant disease have been described. Experimental evidence including expression systems integrating variants found in these families showed phenotypic alterations consistent with histological examinations of skeletal and cardiac muscle of ARVC cases and disruption of cellular adhesion. Nonetheless, DES variants associated with ARVC appear to be very rare and have not been observed in some large ARVC cohorts.Created: 27 May 2021, 5:39 a.m. | Last Modified: 27 May 2021, 5:39 a.m.
