Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PP5_ModerateBP4
The NM_007035.4(KERA):c.740A>G(p.Asn247Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000392 in 1,610,578 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N247D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 247 of the KERA protein (p.Asn247Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs121917858, gnomAD 0.5%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cornea plana (PMID: 10802664, 17679937, 28677912). It is commonly reported in individuals of Finnish ancestry (PMID: 10802664, 11754099). This variant is also known as 247A‚ÜíG N247S. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6519). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
