Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the KLHL24 gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

• Function: FUNCTION: Necessary to maintain the balance between intermediate filament stability and degradation, a process that is essential for skin integrity (PubMed:27889062). As part of the BCR(KLHL24) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, mediates ubiquitination of KRT14 and controls its levels during keratinocytes differentiation (PubMed:27798626). Specifically reduces kainate receptor-mediated currents in hippocampal neurons, most probably by modulating channel properties (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q56A24, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27798626, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27889062}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Epidermolysis bullosa simplex, generalized, with scarring and hair loss (EBSSH) [MIM:617294]: A form of epidermolysis bullosa, a group of mechano-bullous disorders characterized by structural skin fragility, recurrent blister formation and erosion of the skin and mucous membranes occurring spontaneously or after mild trauma. Epidermolysis bullosa simplex is characterized by intraepidermal tissue separation that occurs within the basal keratinocytes at the bottom layer of epidermis. EBSSH is an autosomal dominant epidermolysis bullosa simplex, presenting at birth with extensive skin defects on the extremities, leaving behind hypopigmentation and atrophy with a whirled pattern. Cutaneous fragility and generalized blistering persist during childhood and decrease in adulthood. Adult patients have dyspigmentation and atrophy of the skin, scars, follicular atrophoderma, sparse body hair, progressive diffuse alopecia of the scalp, diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma, and nail changes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27798626, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27889062}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Gain-of-function mutations that lead to excessive ubiquitination and degradation of KRT14 result in compromised mechanical integrity of basal keratinocytes. Under this pathological condition, trivial mechanical stress can induce blister formation at the basal layer of skin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27798626}.
