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 testingGeneDxNov 10, 2023RNA studies demonstrate that the variant reduces the quality of the splice donor site in intron 70, causing abnormal gene splicing and exon skipping of exon 70, in approximately 40% of transcripts (PMID: 9804332); In silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33969388, 9804332, 21448560, 12485454, 31589614, 34426522, 31001817, 31930626, 33274474) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 16, 2024This sequence change affects codon 1940 of the COL7A1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the COL7A1 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs200972872, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (PMID: 9804332, 31001817, 31930626). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 431810). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 70, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 9804332). 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 13, 2023Variant summary: COL7A1 c.5820G>A (p.Pro1940Pro) results in a synonymous change to the encoded protein sequence and also alters the last nucleotide of Exon 71 and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: two predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site, and two predict the variant weakens the same 5' donor site. At least two publications report experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing, leading to both exon skipping and intron retention (e.g., Terracina_1998, Vahidnezhad_2020). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 250822 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.5820G>A has been reported in the literature in both homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa, Recessive (e.g., Terracina_1998, Gardella_2002, Vahidnezhad_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating the impact of the variant, finding markedly reduced COL7A1 transcript levels in a whole-skin biopsy from a homozgyous patient (e.g., Vahidnezhad_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 12485454, 9804332, 31930626). Seven submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 with conflicting interpretations (pathogenic, n = 5; likely pathogenic, n = 1; VUS, n = 1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
