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 summary: The DSP c.2596C>T (p.Arg866Cys) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide, resulting in a missense substitution. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). The variant resides outside of any known functional domain (InterPro). This variant was found in 75/122246 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.006826 (71/10402). This frequency is about 683 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic DSP variant (0.00001), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African origin. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
