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.

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Uncertain:1
Jul 10, 2024
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 356 of the DSP protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in two unrelated individuals affected with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 36431211, 37936624), in two homozygous siblings affected with dilated cardiomyopathy, and in their consanguineous parents who were unaffected heterozygotes (PMID: 36672924). This variant has been identified in 3/251198 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

The c.1067C>T (p.T356M) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 9) of the DSP gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1067, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 356 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
