Genes affected
LAMB3 (HGNC:6490): (laminin subunit beta 3) The product encoded by this gene is a laminin that belongs to a family of basement membrane proteins. This protein is a beta subunit laminin, which together with an alpha and a gamma subunit, forms laminin-5. Mutations in this gene cause epidermolysis bullosa junctional Herlitz type, and generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa, diseases that are characterized by blistering of the skin. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg635*) in the LAMB3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LAMB3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11023379, 16473856). This variant is present in population databases (rs80356682, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive epidermolysis bullosa (PMID: 7698759, 11689492, 15311214, 15663509, 27062385, 28830826). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14539). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: The LAMB3 c.1903C>T (p.Arg635X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent LAMB3 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 92/121034 control chromosomes, predominantly observed in the European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0013392 (89/66456). This variant has been reported in numerous JEB patients both as homozygotes and compound heterozygotes. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The stop gained p.R635* in LAMB3 (NM_000228.3) have been reported previously in multiple patients associated with severe Herlitz phenotype (Nakano et al 2000; Cserhalmi-Friedman et al 2001). The variant has been reported to ClinVar as Pathogenic. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. The p.R635* variant is a loss of function variant in the gene LAMB3, which is intolerant of Loss of Function variants, as indicated by the presence of existing pathogenic loss of function variant NP_000219.2:p.L11Pfs*43 and 47 others. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

LAMB3 NM_000228.2 exon 14 p.Arg635* (c.1903C>T): This variant has been reported in the literature in several individuals with epidermolysis bullosa in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state, including an entry in GeneReviews. Literature suggests that this variant is one of the most common pathogenic variants in this gene (Pulkkinen 1994 PMID:7698759, Kivirikko 1996 PMID:8824879, Varki 2006 PMID:16473856, Pfendner 2014 PMID:20301304). This variant is present in 0.1% (133/129106) of European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-209799066-G-A). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population, autosomal recessive inheritance carrier status, and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as pathogenic (Variation ID:14539). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. In vitro functional studies also support that this variant will impact the protein (Pulkkinen 1994 PMID:7698759). This variant creates a premature stop at this codon which results in an absent or abnormal protein. Loss of function variants are a known mechanism of disease for this gene (Varki 2006 PMID:16473856). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The LAMB3 c.1903C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg635*). This variant has been reported, in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state, in individuals affected with Herlitz type of junctional epidermolysis bullosa (see for example, Kivirikko et al. 1996. PubMed ID: 8824879; Pulkkinen et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9242513; Christiano et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9160387; Yuen et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21801158). It is considered one of the most common causative variants for junctional epidermolysis bullosa (Varki et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16473856). This variant is reported in 0.10% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD, and it is interpreted as pathogenic in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/14539/). Nonsense variants in LAMB3 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

The LAMB3 c.1903C>T (p.Arg635Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant that is predicted to result in a premature termination of the protein. The p.Arg635Ter variant occurs in a region of the gene described as a mutational hotspot (Kivirikko et al. 1996; Pulkkinen et al. 1997). Nanako et al. (2000) noted that the p.Arg635Ter variant was present in 45.4% of disease-associated LAMB3 alleles in a review of a database of junctional epidermolysis bullosa(JEB) variants. Across a selection of the available literature, the p.Arg635Ter variant has been identified in 14 probands in a homozygous state and in 20 probands in a compound heterozygous state, most often associated with the severe Herlitz phenotype (Pulkkinen et al. 1994; Kivirikko et al. 1996; Pulkkinen et al. 1997; Nakano et al. 2000; Cserhalmi-Friedman et al. 2001; Gache et al. 2001; Hauschild et al. 2001). Segregation of the variant with the disease was shown in two studies (Pulkkinen et al. 1994; Gache et al. 2001). The p.Arg635Ter variant is reported at a frequency of 0.00134 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the collective evidence and the potential impact of stop-gained variants, the p.Arg635Ter 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. -
