Genes affected
KIF7 (HGNC:30497): (kinesin family member 7) This gene encodes a cilia-associated protein belonging to the kinesin family. This protein plays a role in the sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway through the regulation of GLI transcription factors. It functions as a negative regulator of the SHH pathway by preventing inappropriate activation of GLI2 in the absence of ligand, and as a positive regulator by preventing the processing of GLI3 into its repressor form. Mutations in this gene have been associated with various ciliopathies. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchUW Hindbrain Malformation Research Program, University of WashingtonFeb 23, 2015- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 19, 2018For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in KIF7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19666503, 21552264, 21633164, 26648833). This variant has been observed in an individual affected with Joubert syndrome (PMID: 26092869). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217671). This variant is present in population databases (rs202229910, ExAC 0.1%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg973*) in the KIF7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
