Genes affected
EDAR (HGNC:2895): (ectodysplasin A receptor) This gene encodes a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family. The encoded transmembrane protein is a receptor for the soluble ligand ectodysplasin A, and can activate the nuclear factor-kappaB, JNK, and caspase-independent cell death pathways. It is required for the development of hair, teeth, and other ectodermal derivatives. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal dominant and recessive forms of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 28, 2017The EDAR c.259T>C (p.Cys87Arg) variant has been reported in one study in which it is found in a homozygous state in one individual with autosomal recessive hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and in a heterozygous state in both unaffected parents (Monreal et al. 1999). The p.Cys87Arg variant was absent from 100 control chromosomes but is reported at a frequency of 0.00003 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. This is based on two alleles only in a region of good sequence coverage so the variant is presumed to be rare. In vitro expression testing found that the p.Cys87Arg variant abolished EDAR binding to EDA-A1 and had a low yield recovery indicating defective folding or solubility (Schneider et al. 2001). Based on the evidence, the p.Cys87Arg variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for autosomal recessive hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
Autosomal recessive hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia syndrome;C3888065:Ectodermal dysplasia 10A, hypohidrotic/hair/nail type, autosomal dominant Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 10, 2023In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects EDAR function (PMID: 11279189). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt EDAR protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5851). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (PMID: 10431241). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908451, gnomAD 0.004%). This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 87 of the EDAR protein (p.Cys87Arg). -
