Genes affected
FERMT1 (HGNC:15889): (FERM domain containing kindlin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fermitin family, and contains a FERM domain and a pleckstrin homology domain. The encoded protein is involved in integrin signaling and linkage of the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Mutations in this gene have been linked to Kindler syndrome.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 24, 2017The FERMT1 c.910G>T (p.Glu304Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant reported in a total of ten individuals with Kindler syndrome, including five homozygotes and five compound heterozygotes (Lanschuetzer et al. 2003; Lai-Cheong et al. 2008; Has et al. 2009; Techanukul et al. 2011; Youssefian et al. 2015). The variant was absent from a total of 200 control chromosomes but is reported at a frequency of 0.00012 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Has et al. (2009) showed that expression of kindlin-1, the protein produced by FERMT1, was absent in primary keratinocytes from a individual homozygous for the p.Glu304Ter variant as well as a individual compound heterozygous for p.Glu304Ter and a second stop-gained variant. Based on the potential impact of stop-gained variants and the evidence from the literature, the p.Glu304Ter variant is classified as pathogenic for Kindler syndrome. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 15, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu304*) in the FERMT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FERMT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14962093, 21936020). This variant is present in population databases (rs146180696, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Kindler syndrome (PMID: 14507403). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 224173). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
