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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.01663837 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.1, offset of 20, new splice context is: aagtgcctgggtccccgcAGaca. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-48587338-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-48587338-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 505312.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.2993-2A>G variant in COL7A1 has not been reported in patients and it was a bsent from large population studies. This variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause altered sp licing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Most splice variants in COL7A1 reported to date have been associated with autosomal recessive epidermolysis bul losa dystrophica, although there are reports of splice variants resulting in the dominant form of the disease. In summary, although additional studies are requi red to fully establish its clinical significance, the c.2993-2A>G variant in COL 7A1 is likely pathogenic for epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica in an autosomal r ecessive manner. -

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 22 of the COL7A1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in COL7A1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16971478). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with COL7A1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 505312). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
