Genes affected
KRT8 (HGNC:6446): (keratin 8) This gene is a member of the type II keratin family clustered on the long arm of chromosome 12. Type I and type II keratins heteropolymerize to form intermediate-sized filaments in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells. The product of this gene typically dimerizes with keratin 18 to form an intermediate filament in simple single-layered epithelial cells. This protein plays a role in maintaining cellular structural integrity and also functions in signal transduction and cellular differentiation. Mutations in this gene cause cryptogenic cirrhosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The KRT8 c.1202+1G>A variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in ClinVar. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs199648626) and LOVD 3.0 (variant effect not shared). The variant was identified in control databases in 76 of 282834 chromosomes (1 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.0002687 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: Ashkenazi Jewish in 12 of 10368 chromosomes (freq: 0.001157), European (non-Finnish) in 59 of 129150 chromosomes (freq: 0.000457), Other in 1 of 7228 chromosomes (freq: 0.000138), African in 2 of 24960 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), South Asian in 1 of 30616 chromosomes (freq: 0.000033) and Latino in 1 of 35436 chromosomes (freq: 0.000028), but was not observed in the East Asian or European (Finnish) populations. The c.1202+1G>A variant is predicted to cause abnormal splicing because the nucleotide substitution occurs in the invariant region of the splice consensus sequence. In addition, 3 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
