It's not. I define the command in a .sty file I then incorporate
with \usepackage.

When I was trying to redefine the way description items are
rendered in the preamble, I had to make use of \makeatletter:

  \makeatletter
  \renewcommand{\descriptionlabel}[1]%
    {\hspace{\labelsep}\descfont{#1}\normalfont~—}
  \makeatother

I suppose this was because something somehwere made use of an @ sign.
