Genes affected

DES (HGNC:2770): (desmin) This gene encodes a muscle-specific class III intermediate filament. Homopolymers of this protein form a stable intracytoplasmic filamentous network connecting myofibrils to each other and to the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene are associated with desmin-related myopathy, a familial cardiac and skeletal myopathy (CSM), and with distal myopathies. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the DES mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 263. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DES-related conditions. This variant disrupts head, Coil 1A, and Coil 1B domains of the DES protein, which are important for desmin-mitochondrial interaction (PMID: 33825342, 15477095) . While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on DES protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
