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.

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8;C1854063:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 06, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1279 of the DSP protein (p.Ala1279Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs763915365, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DSP-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228640). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
Cardiomyopathy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthApr 11, 2023This missense variant replaces alanine with threonine at codon 1279 of the DSP protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/250836 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 15, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 26, 2021The p.A1279T variant (also known as c.3835G>A), located in coding exon 23 of the DSP gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3835. The alanine at codon 1279 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
