The table below lists the 101 rare (MAF<0.0001 in ExAC) protein-altering PKP2 variants identified in a cohort of 361 ARVC patients. When this rare variant frequency of 0.27978 is compared with a background population rate of 0.01358, there is a statistically significant case excess of 0.26620 (p<0.0001), which suggests that approximately 96 of these variants may be pathogenic.
