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]

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Advanced 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 at Invitae 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201702). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DES-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs769647148, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 243 of the DES protein (p.His243Tyr). -

The p.H243Y variant (also known as c.727C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the DES gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 727. The histidine at codon 243 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with similar properties. 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. -
