Genes affected
COL17A1 (HGNC:2194): (collagen type XVII alpha 1 chain) This gene encodes the alpha chain of type XVII collagen. Unlike most collagens, collagen XVII is a transmembrane protein. Collagen XVII is a structural component of hemidesmosomes, multiprotein complexes at the dermal-epidermal basement membrane zone that mediate adhesion of keratinocytes to the underlying membrane. Mutations in this gene are associated with both generalized atrophic benign and junctional epidermolysis bullosa. Two homotrimeric forms of type XVII collagen exist. The full length form is the transmembrane protein. A soluble form, referred to as either ectodomain or LAD-1, is generated by proteolytic processing of the full length form.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly803*) in the COL17A1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in COL17A1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16473856, 17344927, 20301304, 21357940, 24319098). This variant is present in population databases (rs752317971, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with junctional epidermolysis bullosa (PMID: 9077475). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 298713). 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.

The COL17A1 c.2407G>T (p.Gly803Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant predicted to result in premature truncation of the protein. The p.Gly803Ter variant has been reported in two studies in which it is found in a total of six patients with junctional epidermolysis bullosa, including in one in a homozygous state, in four in a compound heterozygous state, and in one in a heterozygous state in whom a second variant was not identified (Darling et al. 1997; Kiritsi et al. 2011). The variant was also detected in a heterozygous state in one unaffected father of one of the compound heterozygotes. The homozygous individual showed severely reduced staining for type XVII collagen in the skin. The p.Gly803Ter variant was absent from one control individual and is reported at a frequency of 0.00001 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium, though this is based on one allele only in a region of good sequence coverage so the variant is presumed to be rare. Due to the potential impact of stop-gained variants and the supporting evidence from the literature, the p.Gly803Ter variant is classified as pathogenic for junctional epidermolysis bullosa. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.
