Genes affected

DST (HGNC:1090): (dystonin) This gene encodes a member of the plakin protein family of adhesion junction plaque proteins. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined. It has been reported that some isoforms are expressed in neural and muscle tissue, anchoring neural intermediate filaments to the actin cytoskeleton, and some isoforms are expressed in epithelial tissue, anchoring keratin-containing intermediate filaments to hemidesmosomes. Consistent with the expression, mice defective for this gene show skin blistering and neurodegeneration. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Frameshift in the end of transcript resulting in stoplost. Downstream stopcodon found after 7816 codons.

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. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with DST-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change results in a frameshift in the DST gene (p.Asp5166Alafs*17). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 6 amino acids of the DST protein and extend the protein by an additional 10 amino acids. The DST gene has multiple clinically relevant transcripts. This variant occurs in alternate transcript NM_015548.4, and corresponds to NM_001723.5:c.*156493del in the primary transcript. -
