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.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The Ala1609fs variant in DSP has not been reported in individuals with cardiomyo pathy. This frameshift variant is predicted to alter the protein?s amino acid se quence beginning at position 1609 and lead to a premature termination codon 18 a mino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Truncating variants in the DSP gene have been described in pa tients with ARVC (http://arvcdatabase.info/). In summary, this variant is likely to be pathogenic, though additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance. -
