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.

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Ser313Ser var iant in DSP has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 6/16506 South Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggrega tion Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs766580649). This variant is located in the last base of the exon, which is part of the 5? splice region. Computational tools do not suggest an impact to splicing. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, whil e the clinical significance of the p.Ser313Ser variant is uncertain, these data suggest that it is more likely to be benign. -

This sequence change affects codon 313 of the DSP mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DSP protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs766580649, gnomAD 0.02%). 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: 228653). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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 c.939C>T variant (also known as p.S313S), located in coding exon 7 of the DSP gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 939. This nucleotide substitution does not change the serine at codon 313. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 7, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This nucleotide position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
