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
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthJan 11, 2024This missense variant replaces leucine with phenylalanine at codon 691 of the DSP protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in a Caucasian teenager with a new diagnosis of HCM and a long history of prolonged QTc intervals, and reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 534311, Accession: SCV000925071.1). This variant has been identified in 2/251132 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. -

Lethal acantholytic epidermolysis bullosa Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedprovider interpretationStanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford UniversityOct 25, 2017Found in a Caucasian teenager with a new diagnosis of HCM and a long history of prolonged QTc intervals. He had a 130-gene Arrhythmia and Cardiomyopathy Comprehensive Panel with the Invitae laboratory. Results included 4 variants: -p.Arg187Leu (c.560G>T) in the DOLK gene -p.Leu691Phe (c.2071C>T) in the DSP gene -p.Gly1546Ser (c.4636G>A) in the FLNC gene -p.Arg216Gln (c.647G>A) in the JUP gene p.Leu691Phe (c.2071C>T) in exon 15 of the DSP gene (NM_004415.2) Chromosome location 6:7572242 C / T Based on the information reviewed below, we classify this as a Variant of Uncertain Significance, Probably Benign, concluding that there is not sufficient evidence for its pathogenicity to warrant using it for predictive genetic testing. This variant has not previously been reported in the literature in association with disease, according to the Invitae report. Of note, most Likely Pathogenic and Pathogenic variants in DSP listed in ClinVar are not missense but are instead truncating loss-of-function variants (nonsense, frameshift, or splice-site variants). The DSP gene is associated with autosomal dominant arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) (MedGen UID: 336069) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) with woolly hair, keratoderma and tooth agenesis (MedGen UID: 808093), as well as autosomal recessive DCM with woolly hair and keratoderma (MedGen UID: 340124). Additional DSP-related conditions have been reported (OMIM: 125647). These conditions do not match Joshua's clinical presentation. This is a conservative amino acid change, resulting in the replacement of a nonpolar Leucine with a nonpolar Phenylalanine. Leucine at this location is poorly conserved across ~100 vertebrate species for which we have data. It is frequently replaced by another amino acid, including a nonpolar Isoleucine, Methionine, Valine, Alanine, Proline, or with a polar Cysteine or Threonine. Kapplinger et al. have proposed a “hot spot” for DSP missense variants between amino acids 250-604 in patients with ARVC but not in controls. This variant does not fall within that hot spot. There are no Likely Pathogenic or Pathogenic missense variants listed in ClinVar within 10 amino acids to either side, indicating that this region of the protein might be tolerant of missense change. According to the Invitae report, algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant was reported in 2 individuals in the gnomAD database, which includes variant calls on ~140,000 individuals of European, African, Latino, South Asian, Ashkenazi, and East Asian descent. Specifically, the variant was observed in 1 Finnish European and 1 non-Finnish European individual (for the highest allele frequency, with large error bars: 0.004%), overall MAF 0.0008%. There is good sequencing coverage at this site. The phenotype of those individuals is not publicly available. The dataset is comprised of multiple cohorts, some of which were recruited from the general population, others were enriched for common cardiovascular disease. The curators made an effort to exclude individuals with severe pediatric diseases. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 03, 2024The c.2071C>T (p.L691F) alteration is located in exon 15 (coding exon 15) of the DSP gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2071, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 691 to be replaced by a phenylalanine (F). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
