Genes affected
KLF1 (HGNC:6345): (KLF transcription factor 1) This gene encodes a hematopoietic-specific transcription factor that induces high-level expression of adult beta-globin and other erythroid genes. The zinc-finger protein binds to the DNA sequence CCACACCCT found in the beta hemoglobin promoter. Heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in this gene result in the dominant In(Lu) blood phenotype.

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: KLF1 c.954dupG (p.Arg319GlufsX34) results in a premature termination codon, and although it is not predicted to cause absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to result in truncation of the encoded protein, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. At least one variant located downstream has been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 245656 control chromosomes. c.954dupG has been observed in the compound heterozygous state in trans with a nonsense variant in an individual affected with autosomal recessive congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type IVb (Magor_2015). Additionally, publications provide experimental evidence from individuals harboring the variant suggesting the resultant protein is unlikely to be translated/stably expressed, and/or some degree of nonsense mediated decay occurs (Singleton_2011, Magor_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25724378, 18487511, 21778342).ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8999). This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state in individuals with the benign Lutheran inhibitor blood group phenotype (In(Lu))(e.g. Singleton_2008) but to our knowledge, it has not been reported in individuals with autosomal dominant congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type IVa. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type IVb. -
