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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 21 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 6-56619476-GTCTT-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-56619476-GTCTT-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 541432.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1518Aspfs*12) in the DST gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DST are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22522446, 25059916, 30371979). This variant is present in population databases (rs748899221, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DST-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 541432). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
