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 right ventricular dysplasia 8 Pathogenic:3
Jan 17, 2023
New York Genome Center
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.4198C>T variant identified in this individual has previously been reported in at least two individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy [PMID: 24125834, 29178656], in an individual with dilated cardiomyopathy [PMID: 33996946], and in a 3-year-old boy affected with severe heart failure and cutaneous abnormalities in compound heterozygosity with p.(Arg2284Ter) [PMID: 25516398]. The c.4198C>T variant has been deposited in ClinVar [ClinVar ID: 199884] as Pathogenic (8 entries) and Likely Pathogenic (1 entry). The c.4198C>T variant is observed in 4 alleles (0.0006% minor allele frequency with 0homozygotes) in population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2, TOPMed Freeze 8), suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in those databases. The c.4198C>T variant is located in exon 23 of this 24-exon gene, predicted to incorporate a premature termination codon (p.(Arg1400Ter)), and is expected to result in loss-of-function via nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available evidence this c.4198C>T p.(Arg1400Ter) variant identified in DSP is classified as Pathogenic. -

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

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with ARVC (MIM#607450) and other DSP-related cardiac disorders. (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Variants in this gene are usually inherited in a dominant manner, however rare reports of recessive inheritance have resulted in a more severe cardiac phenotype (OMIM). (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Age-dependent penetrance and variable expressivity are well-described aspects of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29062697). (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3, v2) <0.01 (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0701 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. NMD-predicted variants are well-reported pathogenic in this gene (ClinVar, PMID: 30382575). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant is reported as pathogenic or likely pathogenic in ClinVar. It has also been reported in the literature in individuals with ARVD and early onset heart failure with cutaneous abnormalities (PMID: 24125834, 25516398). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Identified in the heterozygous state in patients with ARVC and DCM referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in published literature (PMID: 24125834, 29178656, 32877757, 33996946, 36264615); Observed with a pathogenic variant in an individual in the literature with both cardiac and cutaneous manifestations of a DSP-related disorder and familial testing suggests the variants are likely present on opposite alleles (in trans) (PMID: 25516398); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31402444, 34135346, 32877757, 33996946, 35130036, 36437915, 24125834, 29178656, 36264615, 25516398) -

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1A Pathogenic:2
Dec 26, 2022
Petrovsky National Research Centre of Surgery, The Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

We observed a homozygous c.4198C>T (p.R1400*) genetic variant in the DSP gene in a 4-y.o. female proband (of consanguineous marriage) diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy and thrombosis. According to NMD Esc Predictor, mRNA carrying this variant will be processed through nonsense-mediated decay mechanism, leading to haploinsufficiency. This variant is not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 199884). This genetic variant in heterozygous state was reported in two individuals affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24125834, 29178656), and in a 3-y.o. male proband affected with severe heart failure and cutaneous abnormalities in compound heterozygosity with p.Arg2284* (PMID: 25516398). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R1400* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4198C>T), located in coding exon 23 of the DSP gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4198. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 23. This mutation has been detected once in an arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) cohort as well as in a three year old male with left-sided heart failure, cutaneous abnormalities, and palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) who also carried DSP R2284* (Bao J et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2013 Dec;6:552-6; Antonov NK et al. Pediatr Dermatol Dec;32:102-8). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations in DSP that result in haploinsufficiency or protein truncation have been reported in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (Fressart V et al. Europace. 2010;12(6):861-8; Elliott P et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet. 2010;3(4):314-22; Quarta G et al. Circulation. 2011;123(23):2701-9; Garcia-Pavia P et al. Heart. 2011;97(21):1744-52; Rasmussen TB et al. Clin Genet. 2013;84(1):20-30; Pugh TJ et al. Genet Med. 2014;16(8):601-8). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
