Genes affected
B4GALT7 (HGNC:930): (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 7) This gene is a member of the beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase (beta4GalT) family. Family members encode type II membrane-bound glycoproteins that appear to have exclusive specificity for the donor substrate UDP-galactose. Each beta4GalT member has a distinct function in the biosynthesis of different glycoconjugates and saccharide structures. As type II membrane proteins, they have an N-terminal hydrophobic signal sequence that directs the protein to the Golgi apparatus which then remains uncleaved to function as a transmembrane anchor. The enzyme encoded by this gene attaches the first galactose in the common carbohydrate-protein linkage (GlcA-beta1,3-Gal-beta1,3-Gal-beta1,4-Xyl-beta1-O-Ser) found in proteoglycans. This enzyme differs from other beta4GalTs because it lacks the conserved Cys residues found in beta4GalT1-beta4GalT6 and it is located in cis-Golgi instead of trans-Golgi. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the progeroid form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteFeb 02, 2022Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, spondylodysplastic type, 1 (MIM#130070) (PMID: 31278392). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (premature termination codon is located at least 54 nucleotides upstream of the final exon-exon junction). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.01 for a recessive condition (39 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0703 - Other NMD-predicted variants comparable to the one identified in this case have moderate previous evidence for pathogenicity. These two variants have been reported as likely pathogenic, and have been reported in several patients with spondodylodysplastic-Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) (PMID: 31614862, ClinVar, Decipher). (SP) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant has been reported as both likely pathogenic and as a VUS (ClinVar and NTD Genetics). It has also been observed as homozygous in an individual with global developmental delay, broad-based gait and stereotypy, but subsequently classified as benign with no other information provided (DECIPHER). (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome progeroid type Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 21, 2022This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp13*) in the B4GALT7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in B4GALT7 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs200503833, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with B4GALT7-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 282261). In 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. -
