Genes affected
FLG (HGNC:3748): (filaggrin) The protein encoded by this gene is an intermediate filament-associated protein that aggregates keratin intermediate filaments in mammalian epidermis. It is initially synthesized as a polyprotein precursor, profilaggrin (consisting of multiple filaggrin units of 324 aa each), which is localized in keratohyalin granules, and is subsequently proteolytically processed into individual functional filaggrin molecules. Mutations in this gene are associated with ichthyosis vulgaris.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
FLG-AS1 (HGNC:27913): (cervical cancer associated DHX9 suppressive transcript)

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionMay 22, 2022The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.047%). Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through protein truncation. The predicted truncated protein may be shortened by more than 10%. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic without evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000522001 / PMID: 29056476). Therefore, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The stop gained variant c.7031C>G (p.Ser2344Ter) in the FLG gene has been reported in an individual affected with Ichthyosis vulgaris (Wong et al., 2018). The variant has 0.04% allele frequency in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic/ Likely pathogenic. However, study on multiple affected individuals and functional studies on the pathogenicity of the variant is unavailable. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease-causing (Smith et al., 2006). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Dermatitis, atopic, 2 Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPittsburgh Clinical Genomics Laboratory, University of Pittsburgh Medical CenterJul 12, 2022This sequence variant is a single nucleotide substitution (C>G) at coding position 7031 of the FLG gene that generates a premature stop codon at serine 2344 of the FLG protein. This variant is predicted to generate a non-functiol allele through either the expression of a truncated protein or by nonsense mediated decay. This variant was observed by NGS and confirmed with Sanger sequencing. However, due to the presence of several large homologous repeats within FLG, the termition codon may not reside in the exact location listed above. This is a previously reported variant (ClinVar) that has been observed in the literature in individuals with atopic dermatitis (PMID: 29056476). This variant is present in control population datasets (gnomAD database 117 of 250512 alleles or 0.047%). Because haploinsufficiency is a known mechanism of disease for FLG, we consider this variant to be likely pathogenic. ACMG Criteria: PP3, PVS1 -
