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.

Variant summary: DSP c.3507C>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 276034 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0014 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 56 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DSP causing Cardiomyopathy phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3507C>T in individuals affected with Cardiomyopathy and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Tyr1169Tyr in exon 23 of DSP: This variant is not expected to have clinical sign ificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located with in the splice consensus sequence. It has also been identified in 0.8% (3/394) of Chinese chromosomes from a broad population by the 1000 Genomes Projec (dbSNP r s148894066). -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This 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. -
