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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a modified_residue Phosphoserine (size 0) in uniprot entity DESP_HUMAN

An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 180332). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (PMID: 24070718). This variant is present in population databases (rs202084959, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1658 of the DSP protein (p.Ser1658Phe). -

This missense variant replaces serine with phenylalanine at codon 1658 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death (PMID: 24070718). This variant has been identified in 1/250690 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 DSP c.4973C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser1658Phe. This variant was reported in the compound heterozygous state in two patients from an arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) cohort (Rigato et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 24070718). In a separate study assessing the pathogenicity and penetrance of various ARVC-related genes, the p.Ser1658Phe was listed as "questioned." (Ye et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31402444). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/6-7581396-C-T). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
