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.

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

p.Thr49Ala (ACC>GCC): c.145 A>G in exon 1 of the DSP gene (NM_004415.2). The T49A variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The T49A variant was not observed at a significant frequency in approximately 6400 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The T49A variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved across species. Additionally, in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. No other missense mutations in nearby residues have been reported in association with ARVC.Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in ARVC panel(s). -

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

The c.145A>G (p.T49A) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the DSP gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 145, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 49 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

p.Thr49Ala in exon 1 of DSP: This variant is not expected to have clinical signi ficance due to a lack of conservation across species, including mammals. Of note , 3 mammals (lesser Egyptian jerboa, white rhinoceros and hedgehog shrew) have a n alanine (Ala) at this position despite moderate nearby amino acid conservation . In addition, computational prediction tools do not suggest a high likelihood o f impact to the protein. -
