Genes affected
KRT9 (HGNC:6447): (keratin 9) This gene encodes the type I keratin 9, an intermediate filament chain expressed only in the terminally differentiated epidermis of palms and soles. Mutations in this gene cause epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000376 (57/151546) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.00105 (16/15240). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000658. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 26 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAd at 57 AD gene.

Submissions by phenotype

Palmoplantar keratoderma, epidermolytic Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaDec 15, 2018This variant occurs in a canonical splice site (donor) and is therefore predicted to disrupt or distort the normal gene product. It was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018) and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score for this variant, it could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene and cDNA change. No publications were found based on this search. Due to the potential impact of splice donor variants and the lack of clarifying evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for this disease. -
