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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 18 uncertain in NM_001927.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-219421394-G-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 16821.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 32 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.7729 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.36303 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to myofibrillar myopathy 1, dilated cardiomyopathy 1I, atrioventricular block, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, familial isolated dilated cardiomyopathy, neurogenic scapuloperoneal syndrome, Kaeser type.
