Genes affected

DES (HGNC:2770): (desmin) This gene encodes a muscle-specific class III intermediate filament. Homopolymers of this protein form a stable intracytoplasmic filamentous network connecting myofibrils to each other and to the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene are associated with desmin-related myopathy, a familial cardiac and skeletal myopathy (CSM), and with distal myopathies. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Reported previously in a patient with DCM but no reported myopathy; however segregation data were not provided (Taylor et al., 2007); Functional studies show disruption of desmin filament assembly in the presence of the S298L variant (Taylor et al., 2007); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30564623, 23299917, 23861362, 17325244, 23143191, 22337857, 20474083, 27896284, 29926427) -

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 298 of the DES protein (p.Ser298Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs62636491, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 17325244, 23861362). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 66423). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on DES protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases was too high to be consistent with this variant causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

The c.893C>T (p.S298L) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the DES gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 893, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 298 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
