Genes affected

DES (HGNC:2770): (desmin) This gene encodes a muscle-specific class III intermediate filament. Homopolymers of this protein form a stable intracytoplasmic filamentous network connecting myofibrils to each other and to the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene are associated with desmin-related myopathy, a familial cardiac and skeletal myopathy (CSM), and with distal myopathies. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 375 of the DES protein (p.Arg375Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs375218723, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with DES-related conditions (PMID: 30847666; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201707). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on DES protein function. 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. -

The p.R375W variant (also known as c.1123C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the DES gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1123. The arginine at codon 375 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was detected in a cardiomyopathy genetic testing cohort; however, clinical details were limited, and additional cardiac variants were detected in some cases (van Lint FHM et al. Neth Heart J, 2019 Jun;27:304-309). Additionally, this alteration was reported in a sudden infant death cohort (Neubauer J et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2017 Apr;25:404-409). 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. -
