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.

Submissions by phenotype

Cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJun 22, 2023This variant causes a T to C nucleotide substitution at the +2 position of intron 17 of the DSP gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Although this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies, this variant is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in one individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29892087), and in several individuals from population-based cohorts whose clinical information were limited (PMID: 31447099, 31589614, 33684294). This variant has been identified in 1/251420 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of DSP function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8;C1854063:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with wooly hair and keratoderma Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeApr 14, 2023In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 388661). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 29892087). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 17 of the DSP gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in DSP are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20716751, 24503780, 25227139). -
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 17, 2019The c.2436+2T>C variant in DSP has not been previously reported in the literatur e in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been reported by other clinical la boratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 388661). It has also been identified in 1/6 6720 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gno mad.broadinstitute.org/; dbSNP rs774514264). This variant occurs in the invarian t region (+/- 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause al tered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein, which is common among d isease causing DSP variants. In summary, although additional studies are require d to fully establish its clinical significance, the c.2436+2T>C variant is likel y pathogenic. -
