Genes affected
DSP (HGNC:3052): (desmoplakin) This gene encodes a protein that anchors intermediate filaments to desmosomal plaques and forms an obligate component of functional desmosomes. Mutations in this gene are the cause of several cardiomyopathies and keratodermas, including skin fragility-woolly hair syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Asp230Asn var iant in DSP has been reported in one adult with ARVC (Xu 2010) and two adults wi th HCM (LMM unpublished data). This variant has been identified in 48/66740 Eur opean chromosomes, including 1 homozygote, by the Exome Aggregation Consortium ( ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org dbSNP rs147315869). Computational predictio n tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against a n impact to the protein. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.As p230Asn variant is uncertain, its frequency suggests that it is more likely to be benign. -

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8 Uncertain:1
Apr 27, 2017
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
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. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
