The c.967C>T (p.R323C) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 2) of the KERA gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 967, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 323 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 323 of the KERA protein (p.Arg323Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs148063461, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KERA-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1896764). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
