PKP2 Pathogenicity Classification

Classify PKP2 (plakophilin-2) variants using ACMG criteria for pathogenicity in ARVC. Frameshift and nonsense variants are typically pathogenic; missense variants require extensive evidence.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Classify PKP2 (plakophilin-2) variants using ACMG criteria for pathogenicity in ARVC. Frameshift and nonsense variants are typically pathogenic; missense variants require extensive evidence

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • ACMG criteria — The acmg criteria recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the pkp2 pathogenicity result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the ACMG criteria for the scenario you are assessing. Classify PKP2 (plakophilin-2) variants using ACMG criteria for pathogenicity in ARVC. Frameshift and nonsense variants are typically pathogenic; missense variants require extensive evidence. Use the pkp2 pathogenicity result to inform your calculation.
