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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points.

PVS1

Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.55626327 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 12, offset of 0 (no position change), new splice context is: ggcttctcttcctcccccAGgtc. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

BP6

Variant 2-219425942-T-TC is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-219425942-T-TC is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 228546.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=2, Uncertain_significance=3}.

The c.1372-3_1372-2insC variant in DES has not been previously reported in indiv iduals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 3/11576 Latino chromosome s by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). Th is variant results in the insertion of a single nucleotide in the 3' splice regi on. Computational tools do not suggest an impact to splicing. However, this info rmation is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, the clin ical significance of the c.1372-3_1372-2insC variant is uncertain. -

The c.1372-3dupC intronic variant, results from a duplication of two nucleotides at nucleotide position 1372 before intron 8 of the DES gene. This nucleotide position is well 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. -
