Genes affected
LAMA3 (HGNC:6483): (laminin subunit alpha 3) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the laminin family of secreted molecules. Laminins are heterotrimeric molecules that consist of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits that assemble through a coiled-coil domain. Laminins are essential for formation and function of the basement membrane and have additional functions in regulating cell migration and mechanical signal transduction. This gene encodes an alpha subunit and is responsive to several epithelial-mesenchymal regulators including keratinocyte growth factor, epidermal growth factor and insulin-like growth factor. Mutations in this gene have been identified as the cause of Herlitz type junctional epidermolysis bullosa and laryngoonychocutaneous syndrome. Alternative splicing and alternative promoter usage result in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 28, 2019Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 31, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 449049). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with LAMA3-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs772038362, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1372*) in the LAMA3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LAMA3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10366601, 11810295, 12915477, 16473856, 17362460, 22434185, 23869449, 27827380, 28087116). -
