Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PVS1 PS3 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_004415.4(DSP):​c.3799C>T​(p.Arg1267*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,844 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV004836942: A study with skin biopsies from carrier individuals has shown that this variant causes an absent expression of the major DSP transcript (NM_004415) in the heart (PMID:16467215)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R1267R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV004836942: A study with skin biopsies from carrier individuals has shown that this variant causes an absent expression of the major DSP transcript (NM_004415) in the heart (PMID: 16467215).; SCV004363372: A study with skin biopsies from carrier individuals has shown that this variant causes an absent expression of the major DSP transcript (NM_004415) in the heart (PMID: 16467215).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 6-7579989-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-7579989-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 16845.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
