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.

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8;C1854063:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Pathogenic:1
Jan 10, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the DSP protein in which other variant(s) (p.Thr2634Lysfs*4) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11063735). 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: 405223). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSP-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys1916*) in the DSP gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 956 amino acid(s) of the DSP protein. -

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8 Pathogenic:1
May 23, 2017
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 24 of the DSP mRNA (c.5745dupT), causing a frameshift at codon 1916. This creates a premature translational stop signal in the last exon of the DSP mRNA (p.Lys1916*). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to result in a truncated DSP protein. While this truncation has not been reported in the literature, a truncating variant located downstream in exon 24 has been reported to be deleterious (PMID: 11063735). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.5745dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 24 of the DSP gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 5745. This changes the amino acid at position 1916 from a lysine to a stop codon (p.K1916*). 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 alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of DSP and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay; however, it results in the removal of 956 amino acids comprising approximately 33% of the protein. While the exact functional impact of these removed amino acids is unknown, the eliminated regions include the plakin repeats, plectin domains, tandem repeats of G-S-R-[SR], and domains required for keratin and intermediate filament interaction. In addition, several alterations more C-terminal than this variant have been detected in ARVC and DCM cohorts (e.g., c.8077_8080delAAG and c.8188delC in Walsh R et al. Genet. Med. 2017;19:192-203). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
