Genes affected
KLKB1 (HGNC:6371): (kallikrein B1) This gene encodes a glycoprotein that participates in the surface-dependent activation of blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, kinin generation and inflammation. The encoded preproprotein present in plasma as a non-covalent complex with high molecular weight kininogen undergoes proteolytic processing mediated by activated coagulation factor XII to generate a disulfide-linked, heterodimeric serine protease comprised of heavy and light chains. Certain mutations in this gene cause prekallikrein deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

KLKB1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 04, 2023The KLKB1 c.451dupT variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Ser151Phefs*34). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous and homozygous states in multiple individuals with prekallikrein deficiency (Maak et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19404525; Nazir and Pathare 2019. Hematol Transfus Int J. 2019;7(1):11-15 DOI: 10.15406/htij.2019.07.00197; Dasgupta et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31984307; Barco et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 322022057; Adenaeuer et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33073460; Abraham et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34847617) and has been reported to co-segregate with the disorder in at least one family (Maak et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19404525). This variant is reported in 1.4% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is the variant primarily responsible for the elevated prevalence of prekallikrein deficiency in this subpopulation (Barco et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 322022057; Adenaeuer et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33073460). Frameshift variants in KLKB1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Inherited prekallikrein deficiency Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInstitute for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, University Medical Center MainzDec 13, 2022We were able to detect this variant, NM_000892.4(KLKB1):c.451dupT p.(Ser151Phefs*34), in homozygosity in three unrelated individuals with severe prekallikrein deficiency and prolonged aPTT (Barco et al. PMID: 32202057; Adenaeuer et al. PMID: 33073460) (<1% PK activity and antigen level). Functional assays of one individual were originally published by Nazir et al. (DOI: 10.15406/htij.2019.07.00197). This is a frameshift variant in exon 5, resulting in a premature stop codon and virtually no detectable prekallikrein activity or antigen (CRM-). Other known cases with KLKB1 c.451dupT in the literature: This variant was first identified in a homozygous case (urn:nbn:de:hebis:30-67544 (German doctoral thesis) and by Maak et al. in a compound heterozygous prekallikrein deficient individual (PMID: 19404525 (paper in German)). Homozygosity for this variant was also detected in an African American case (PMID: 31984307) and an Indian case with PK deficiency (PMID: 34847617)(both did not adhere to HGVS nomenclature, but depicted sequences match). In summary, this variant is to be classified as pathogenic (ACMG criteria) and leads to no detectable PK activity or antigen. It is rare in many ethnicities (0.1-0.6%) but reaches a MAF of 1-2% in several African collectives (dbSNP), making it by far the most frequent PK deficiency causing variant. This variant alone causes one case of PK deficiency in every ~7000 people in native African collectives and collectives of African origin studied (PMID: 33073460). -
