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.

Variant summary: DSP c.5555G>A (p.Arg1852His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0002 in 277212 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0014 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DSP causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.0002), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of South Asian origin. c.5555G>A has been reported in the literature in a study that attempted to estimate the cardiovascular genetic risk in the Pakistani population in comparison with other continental populations using the 1000 genomes and the ExAC datasets. As this constitues the South Asian population referred above, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy. Furthermore, the Atlas of Cardiac Genetic Variation cites this variant as unlikely to be pathogenic based on its ExAC population frequency. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One of these labs classified the variant as likely benign while the other two classified it as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely 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. -
