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.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 2083 of the DSP protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 24981977); this individual also carried a variant in the KCNH2 gene with conflicting interpretations in ClinVar (variation ID67445) and thus uncertain impact on the observed phenotype. The DSP p.Arg2083Cys variant has been identified in 12/282646 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. -

Variant summary: The DSP c.6247C>T (p.Arg2083Cys) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in 13/276998 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000469, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic DSP variant (0.0002). This variant has been reported in one LQTS patient who carries a KCNH2 variant (c.2863C>G/p.L955V, classified likely pathogenic in ClinVar). Taken together, this variant is classified as VUS. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Feb 24, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R2083C variant (also known as c.6247C>T), located in coding exon 24 of the DSP gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 6247. The arginine at codon 2083 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
