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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 10, 2022Identified in multiple unrelated patients referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in the published literature, with either an autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive inheritance pattern, sometimes presenting with different inheritance patterns in members of the same family (Almaani et al., 2011; Hamidi et al., 2016; E Pfendner, unpublished); Located in the highly conserved Gly-X-Y repeat of the collagenous domain; Glycine substitution variants in this region of the COLVII protein destabilize the collagen triple helix resulting in skin fragility due to poor anchoring of the basement membrane to the underlying dermis (Pfendner and Lucky, 2018); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34435747, 21448560, 11167698, 27746867, 31216405, 30924923) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 17, 2023This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2031 of the COL7A1 protein (p.Gly2031Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs121912838, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive epidermolysis bullosa (PMID: 11167698, 27746867). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17446). 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 COL7A1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the triple helix domain of COL7A1. Glycine residues within the Gly-Xaa-Yaa repeats of the triple helix domain are required for the structure and stability of fibrillar collagens (PMID: 7695699, 8218237, 19344236), and variants at these glycine residues in COL7A1 are more frequently observed in individuals with disease than in the general population (PMID: 22058051). However, the clinical significance of this observation remains uncertain since only a limited number of affected individuals have been described to date. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Duane retraction syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardFeb 26, 2024The heterozygous p.Gly2031Ser variant in COL7A1 was identified in 1 individual with Duane Retraction Syndrome (DRS), hand and finger anomalies, and absent nails via a collaborative study between the Broad Institute's Center for Mendelian Genomics and the Engle lab (https://kirbyneuro.org/EngleLab/). While this gene has a definitive gene-disease association with autosomal dominant or recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa and an autosomal dominant nail disorder, it is lacking sufficient evidence to establish a gene-disease relationship for DRS. An additional variant (p.Arg894Cys) in KIF5C was also detected in heterozygosity with this variant. While these genes are lacking sufficient evidence, we believe that both variants may be contributing to the phenotype. Given the limited information about this gene-disease relationship, the significance of the p.Gly2031Ser variant is uncertain. If you have any additional information about functional evidence or other individuals with this phenotype that also have variants in COL7A1 we encourage you to reach out to the Engle Lab (elizabeth.engle@childrens.harvard.edu). -
