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.

Submissions by phenotype

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 23, 2023This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 24 of the DSP gene, creating a premature translation stop signal in the last exon. Although functional studies have not been reported, this variant is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay and be expressed as a truncated protein with disruption to the plakin repeat domains and downstream C-terminal sequence that have been reported to be essential for interaction with intermediate filaments (PMID: 12101406, 12802069, 21756917). This variant has been reported in 6 unrelated individuals affected with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 35474678, 36768812, Delpon 2016, Burns 2019, dissertation, The University of Sydney), in 1 individual affected with familial dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26899768), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26656175), and acute myocarditis (PMID: 34368507). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8;C1854063:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMay 25, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the DSP protein in which other variant(s) (p.Glu2728Glyfs*11) have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 222582). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 26899768). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1951*) in the DSP gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 921 amino acid(s) of the DSP protein. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 06, 2024The p.R1951* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.5851C>T), located in coding exon 24 of the DSP gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5851. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 24. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of the DSP gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and impacts the last 32% of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). 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 variant has been detected in individuals with features consistent with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy (Cuenca S et al. J Heart Lung Transplant, 2016 May;35:625-35; Chen V et al. Eur Heart J Case Rep, 2022 Mar;6:ytac105; Gasperetti A et al. JACC Adv, 2024 Mar;3:100832). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
