Genes affected

KRT38 (HGNC:6456): (keratin 38) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the keratin gene family. As a type I hair keratin, it is an acidic protein which heterodimerizes with type II keratins to form hair and nails. The type I hair keratins are clustered in a region of chromosome 17q12-q21 and have the same direction of transcription. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.1364G>A (p.R455Q) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 7) of the KRT38 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1364, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 455 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
