Genes affected

EDARADD (HGNC:14341): (EDAR associated via death domain) This gene was identified by its association with ectodermal dysplasia, a genetic disorder characterized by defective development of hair, teeth, and eccrine sweat glands. The protein encoded by this gene is a death domain-containing protein, and is found to interact with EDAR, a death domain receptor known to be required for the development of hair, teeth and other ectodermal derivatives. This protein and EDAR are coexpressed in epithelial cells during the formation of hair follicles and teeth. Through its interaction with EDAR, this protein acts as an adaptor, and links the receptor to downstream signaling pathways. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 18 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

The p.Cys100X variant in EDARADD has not been previously reported in individuals with disease and data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of the variant. This variant is an insertion of 3 bases at position c.299 and is expected to impact the protein by introducing a premature termination codon at position 100. This alteration occurs within the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. Truncating and loss-of-function variants have not been established as a mechanism of disease in EDARADD. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the p.Cys100X variant is uncertain. -
