Genetic Variant KRT5:p.Ser181Thr (chr12-52519756-A-T) – ACMG Classification: Likely_pathogenic (8 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Moderate

The NM_000424.4(KRT5):c.541T>A(p.Ser181Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,752 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S181P) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

KRT5 (HGNC:6442): (keratin 5) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the keratin gene family. The type II cytokeratins consist of basic or neutral proteins which are arranged in pairs of heterotypic keratin chains coexpressed during differentiation of simple and stratified epithelial tissues. This type II cytokeratin is specifically expressed in the basal layer of the epidermis with family member KRT14. Mutations in these genes have been associated with a complex of diseases termed epidermolysis bullosa simplex. The type II cytokeratins are clustered in a region of chromosome 12q12-q13.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 14 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_000424.4

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

PM5

Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr12-52519756-A-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 14650.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.

PP3

MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.873
