Genes affected
KIF7 (HGNC:30497): (kinesin family member 7) This gene encodes a cilia-associated protein belonging to the kinesin family. This protein plays a role in the sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway through the regulation of GLI transcription factors. It functions as a negative regulator of the SHH pathway by preventing inappropriate activation of GLI2 in the absence of ligand, and as a positive regulator by preventing the processing of GLI3 into its repressor form. Mutations in this gene have been associated with various ciliopathies. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Acrocallosal syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterresearchUW Hindbrain Malformation Research Program, University of WashingtonFeb 23, 2015- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineNov 25, 2014The p.Glu982X variant in KIF7 has not been previously reported in individuals with disease and data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of this variant. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 982 which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function variants in KIF7 have been shown to cause Acrocallosal syndrome. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Acrocallosal syndrome in an autosomal recessive manner. -
KIF7-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 01, 2024The KIF7 c.2944G>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Glu982*). This variant was reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual with Joubert syndrome (Table S5, Bachmann-Gagescu et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26092869). This variant is reported in 0.0024% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in KIF7 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
