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]

The p.(Arg525*) variant in COL7A1 is a nonsense variant that was previously identified in two Pakistani families with severe Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (DEB) (Khan et al., 2021 and Fozia et al., 2022). LOF is a known mechanism of disease. This variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

The R525X pathogenic variant in the COL7A1 gene has been reported previously in association with autosomal recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (Whittock et al., 1999 Almaani et al. 2011). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense- mediated mRNA decay. The R525X variant was not observed with any significant frequency in individuals of European or African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. We interpret R525X as a pathogenic variant. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg525*) in the COL7A1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in COL7A1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16971478). This variant is present in population databases (rs368007918, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive epidermolysis bullosa (PMID: 10504458, 21448560). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 279785). 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. -
