Genes affected
GJB3 (HGNC:4285): (gap junction protein beta 3) This gene is a member of the connexin gene family. The encoded protein is a component of gap junctions, which are composed of arrays of intercellular channels that provide a route for the diffusion of low molecular weight materials from cell to cell. Mutations in this gene can cause non-syndromic deafness or erythrokeratodermia variabilis, a skin disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein.

SMIM12 (HGNC:25154): (small integral membrane protein 12) Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 1 Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases was too high to be consistent with this variant causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -
