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.

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 15, 2015The p.Ala2148Thr variant in DSP has not been previously reported in patients wit h cardiomyopathy but has been identified in 1/16484 of South Asian chromosomes a nd 1/10288 African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http:/ /exac.broadinstitute.org; rs144539278). Computational prediction tools and conse rvation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this i nformation is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ala2148Thr variant is uncertain. -
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 02, 2023This missense variant replaces alanine with threonine at codon 2148 of the DSP protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy who also carried a pathogenic variant in the DSP gene (PMID: 31319917), in an individual affected with an unspecified cardiomyopathy with clinical limited details (PMID: 37477868), and in an individual affected with alcoholic cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29773157). This variant has been identified in 6/282610 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 14, 2023The p.A2148T variant (also known as c.6442G>A), located in coding exon 24 of the DSP gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 6442. The alanine at codon 2148 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been detected in individuals from unspecified cardiomyopathy and alcohol-induced cardiomyopathy cohorts and co-occurred with a DSP nonsense mutation in a proband with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (Ware JS et al. J Am Coll Cardiol, 2018 May;71:2293-2302; DeWitt ES et al. J Am Coll Cardiol, 2019 Jul;74:346-358; Akinrinade O et al. J Cardiovasc Transl Res, 2023 Jul). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
