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.

Ser1232Ser in exon 23 of DSP: This variant is not expected to have clinical sign ificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located with in the splice consensus sequence. This variant has been identified in 0.2% (8/37 38) of African American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome S equencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs141120358).

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

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

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

Variant Summary: The variant of interest causes a synonymous change involving a non-conserved nucleotide with 5/5 in silico programs via Alamut predicting no significant effect on splicing, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 55/120418 (1/2189), predominantly in the African cohort, 52/10138 (1/194), which exceeds the predicted maximum expected allele frequency for a pathogenic DSP variant of 1/100000. Therefore, suggesting that the variant is a common polymorphism found in population(s) of African origin. In addition, multiple reputable clinical laboratories cite the variant with a classification of "likely benign." Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as Benign. -

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

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
