Description

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease.

Description

Variant summary: DSP c.1140+6T>C alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00019 in 250850 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0011 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 6 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DSP causing Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia/Cardiomyopathy phenotype (0.0002), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance (n=1) and likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.
