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. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_004415.4.

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the deleted amino acids is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with DSP-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant, c.1976_1987delGAGAAAATGACA, results in the deletion of 4 amino acid(s) of the DSP protein (p.Arg659_Asp662del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -

This variant causes an in-frame deletion of four amino acids of the DSP protein. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -
