Genes affected
DST (HGNC:1090): (dystonin) This gene encodes a member of the plakin protein family of adhesion junction plaque proteins. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined. It has been reported that some isoforms are expressed in neural and muscle tissue, anchoring neural intermediate filaments to the actin cytoskeleton, and some isoforms are expressed in epithelial tissue, anchoring keratin-containing intermediate filaments to hemidesmosomes. Consistent with the expression, mice defective for this gene show skin blistering and neurodegeneration. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Variant summary: DST c.3336G>C (p.Glu1112Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0035 in 250036 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 3-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DST causing Epidermolysis bullosa simplex 3, localized or generalized intermediate, with BP230 deficiency phenotype (0.0011). c.3336G>C has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with progressive neuropathies, muscle weakness, Raynauds phenomenon, scleroderma syncope and hypermobility, without strong evidence for causality (Bloss_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Epidermolysis bullosa simplex 3, localized or generalized intermediate, with BP230 deficiency. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25790160). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 357589). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
