Genes affected
COL7A1 (HGNC:2214): (collagen type VII alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the alpha chain of type VII collagen. The type VII collagen fibril, composed of three identical alpha collagen chains, is restricted to the basement zone beneath stratified squamous epithelia. It functions as an anchoring fibril between the external epithelia and the underlying stroma. Mutations in this gene are associated with all forms of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. In the absence of mutations, however, an acquired form of this disease can result from an autoimmune response made to type VII collagen. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The COL7A1 p.Arg2791Trp variant was identified in the literature as a compound heterozygous variant in 1 of 14 patients with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (Dang_2007_PMID:17425959). The variant was also identified as a compound heterozygous variant in a 62 year old man with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa who also carried a p.Gly1281Valfs*44 variant (Mahto_2013_PMID:23786535). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs142566193), ClinVar (classified as likely pathogenic by Knight Diagnostic Laboratories,Oregon Health and Sciences University, and as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics) and LOVD 3.0 (classified as pathogenic, likely pathogenic and VUS). The variant was identified in control databases in 284 of 262690 chromosomes (2 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.001081 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: European (non-Finnish) in 213 of 120204 chromosomes (freq: 0.001772), Other in 8 of 6758 chromosomes (freq: 0.001184), European (Finnish) in 22 of 23032 chromosomes (freq: 0.000955), African in 14 of 23204 chromosomes (freq: 0.000603), Latino in 16 of 32778 chromosomes (freq: 0.000488) and South Asian in 11 of 28376 chromosomes (freq: 0.000388), but was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish or East Asian populations. The p.Arg2791 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a 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. -

Epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica Uncertain:1
Apr 27, 2017
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
