This variant has been reported as a Dutch founder variant and is observed in 10-15% of Dutch patients with either dilated or arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 22820313; PMID: 23568436). Across a selection of the available literature, the c.40_42del variant has been identified in a heterozygous state in more than one hundred patients with cardiomyopathy, including in families where it segregated with disease (PMID: 16432188; PMID: 17010801; PMID: 22820313; PMID: 23568436; PMID: 25700660). Clinical evaluation of 52 Dutch patients carrying this variant showed that the mean age of onset of symptoms was 44.3 ± 12.6 years, with most patients presenting with ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, heart failure, or syncope (PMID: 22820313). Additionally, patients specifically diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy who carried this variant were found to have a significantly higher family history of sudden cardiac death before the age of 50 years compared to patients who did not carry this variant (PMID: 22820313). In-vitro cell culture-based functional studies have shown that this variant results in the inhibition of SERCA, which is an important ATP-dependent calcium pump in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and in-vivo studies have shown that transgenic mice that express this variant in the heart recapitulate the human cardiac phenotype (PMID: 16432188; PMID: 22155237; PMID: 22427649). This variant is reported in the Genome Aggregation Database in two alleles at a frequency of 0.000029 in the European (non-Finnish) population (version 3.1.2). Based on the available evidence, the c.40_42del (p.Arg14del) variant is classified as pathogenic for intrinsic cardiomyopathy. (less)

The observed … (more) A Homozygote Inframe indel variant c.36_38delAAG in Exon 2 of the PLN gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Arg13del was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00000/0.00003% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is medium, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score. Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (Variant ID: 44580),.The observed variant has previously been reported in the patient affected with cardiomyopathy (Haghighi K et.al 2006). Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. (less) Ethnicity/Population group: Asian Geographic origin: India

This pathogenic mutation results from an in-frame AGA deletion at nucleotide positions 40 to 42. This results in the in-frame deletion of an arginine at codon 14. This mutation has been identified in multiple individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and it has shown strong segregation with cardiomyopathy in a number of unrelated extended pedigrees (DeWitt M et al. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2006;48(7):1396-8; Haghighi K et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci. U.S.A. 2006;103(5):1388-93; Posch M et al. Heart Rhythm. 2009;6(4):480-6; van der Zwaag PA et al. Eur J Heart Fail. 2012;14(11):1199-207; Groeneweg J et al. Am J Cardiol. 2013;112(8):1197-206). Haploytpe analysis has indicated that this variant is a Dutch founder mutation (van der Zwaag PA et al. 2013. Neth Heart J. 2013;21(6):286-93). Functional assays have demonstrated that this alteration disrupts protein function and leads to dominant negative effects (Haghighi K et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci. U.S.A. 2006;103(5):1388-93; Haghighi K et al. J Mol Cell Cardiol. 2012;52(3):773-82; Ceholski D et al. J Biol Chem. 2012;287(32):26596-605; Ceholski DK et al. J Biol Chem. 2012;287(20):16521-9). In addition, a study has found that PLN gene editing can rescue the abnormalities observed in human cardiomyocytes derived from an affected individual heterozygous for this alteration (Karakikes I et al. Nat Commun. 2015;6:6955). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. (less)

Comment:

Results in an in-frame deletion of 1 amino acid in a non-repeat region; Transgenic mice harboring this variant exhibited features similar to the human phenotype with abnormal heart histopathology and premature death (Haghighi et al., 2006; Haghighi et al., 2012). An in vitro functional study reported that R14del is a partial inhibitor of the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump, and that it inhibits the phospholamban-protein kinase A interaction (Ceholski et al., 2012).; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24732829, 24909667, 23785128, 25923014, 29750433, 30830208, 31402444, 22427649, 22707725, 25775607, 23270881, 22820313, 16432188, 26970417, 27450564, 25700660, 27532257, 19324307, 22155237, 23568436, 17010801, 29635323, 29447731, 30763825, 30547415, 31152552, 30847666, 32555305, 29544605, 29253866, 33662488, 33673806, 32880476, 34135346, 33998164)

Comment:

This variant, c.40_42del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the PLN protein (p.Arg14del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs778096369, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has been observed in individuals with arrythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia or dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 16432188, 22820313, 23568436). It is commonly reported in individuals of Dutch ancestry (PMID: 16432188). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 44580). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects PLN function (PMID: 16432188, 22155237, 22707725). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Comment:

The p.Arg14del variant in PLN has been identified in >50 individuals with DCM an d >10 individuals with ARVC, and was found to segregate with disease in at least >10 affected relatives with DCM (DeWitt 2006, Haghighi 2006, Posch 2009, van de r Zwagg 2012). Multiple functional studies, including mouse models, all support that the Arg14del variant impacts protein function (Haghighi 2006, Ceholski 2012 a, Ceholski 2012b, Haghighi 2012). In summary, the p.Arg14del variant meets our criteria for pathogenicity (http://www.partners.org/personalizedmedicine/LMM) ba sed on segregation and functional evidence.

Comment:

The PLN c.40_42del (p.Arg14del) variant results in the deletion of three nucleotides starting at position c.40 and ending at position c.42, causing an in-frame deletion of the arginine residue at position 14 in the protein. This variant has been reported as a Dutch founder variant and is observed in 10-15% of Dutch patients with either dilated or arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 22820313; PMID: 23568436). Across a selection of the available literature, the c.40_42del variant has been identified in a heterozygous state in more than one hundred patients with cardiomyopathy, including in families where it segregated with disease (PMID: 16432188; PMID: 17010801; PMID: 22820313; PMID: 23568436; PMID: 25700660). Clinical evaluation of 52 Dutch patients carrying this variant showed that the mean age of onset of symptoms was 44.3 ± 12.6 years, with most patients presenting with ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, heart failure, or syncope (PMID: 22820313). Additionally, patients specifically diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy who carried this variant were found to have a significantly higher family history of sudden cardiac death before the age of 50 years compared to patients who did not carry this variant (PMID: 22820313). In-vitro cell culture-based functional studies have shown that this variant results in the inhibition of SERCA, which is an important ATP-dependent calcium pump in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and in-vivo studies have shown that transgenic mice that express this variant in the heart recapitulate the human cardiac phenotype (PMID: 16432188; PMID: 22155237; PMID: 22427649). This variant is reported in the Genome Aggregation Database in two alleles at a frequency of 0.000029 in the European (non-Finnish) population (version 3.1.2). Based on the available evidence, the c.40_42del (p.Arg14del) variant is classified as pathogenic for intrinsic cardiomyopathy.

Comment:

A Homozygote Inframe indel variant c.36_38delAAG in Exon 2 of the PLN gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Arg13del was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00000/0.00003% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is medium, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score. Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (Variant ID: 44580),.The observed variant has previously been reported in the patient affected with cardiomyopathy (Haghighi K et.al 2006). Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines.

Comment:

The c.40_42delAGA pathogenic mutation (also known as p.R14del) is located in coding exon 1 of the PLN gene. This pathogenic mutation results from an in-frame AGA deletion at nucleotide positions 40 to 42. This results in the in-frame deletion of an arginine at codon 14. This mutation has been identified in multiple individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and it has shown strong segregation with cardiomyopathy in a number of unrelated extended pedigrees (DeWitt M et al. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2006;48(7):1396-8; Haghighi K et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci. U.S.A. 2006;103(5):1388-93; Posch M et al. Heart Rhythm. 2009;6(4):480-6; van der Zwaag PA et al. Eur J Heart Fail. 2012;14(11):1199-207; Groeneweg J et al. Am J Cardiol. 2013;112(8):1197-206). Haploytpe analysis has indicated that this variant is a Dutch founder mutation (van der Zwaag PA et al. 2013. Neth Heart J. 2013;21(6):286-93). Functional assays have demonstrated that this alteration disrupts protein function and leads to dominant negative effects (Haghighi K et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci. U.S.A. 2006;103(5):1388-93; Haghighi K et al. J Mol Cell Cardiol. 2012;52(3):773-82; Ceholski D et al. J Biol Chem. 2012;287(32):26596-605; Ceholski DK et al. J Biol Chem. 2012;287(20):16521-9). In addition, a study has found that PLN gene editing can rescue the abnormalities observed in human cardiomyocytes derived from an affected individual heterozygous for this alteration (Karakikes I et al. Nat Commun. 2015;6:6955). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
