Genes affected
FLG (HGNC:3748): (filaggrin) The protein encoded by this gene is an intermediate filament-associated protein that aggregates keratin intermediate filaments in mammalian epidermis. It is initially synthesized as a polyprotein precursor, profilaggrin (consisting of multiple filaggrin units of 324 aa each), which is localized in keratohyalin granules, and is subsequently proteolytically processed into individual functional filaggrin molecules. Mutations in this gene are associated with ichthyosis vulgaris.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
CCDST (HGNC:55988): (cervical cancer associated DHX9 suppressive transcript)

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 125 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00625 (950/151908) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0199 (824/41472). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0187. There are 10 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 446 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 30. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 10 SD,XL,AR,AD geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

NM_002016.1:c.5717C>A in the FLG gene has an allele frequency of 0.013 in East Asia subpopulation in the gnomAD database.This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.5717C>A (p.Ser1906*) variant has been detected in a patient affected with ichthyosis vulgaris (PMID: 28407221). Taken together, we interprete this variant as Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1; PM2_supporting; PP4. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:research

While the frequency of the alternate allele in gnoMAD v2.0.2 is 0.051, its frequency in African populations is >5%. This suggests that previous classifications of this variant as pathogenic are in error. -
