RCV000015655 | SCV001362358 | pathogenic | Junctional epidermolysis bullosa gravis of Herlitz | 2019-11-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: LAMC2 c.1067-1G>A (also known as 1184-1G>A) is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: five predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. A functional study performed on patient derived fibroblasts found that the variant results in an in-frame skipping of exon 9 (Pulkkinen_1994). The variant was absent in 251466 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1067-1G>A has been reported in the literature in a homozygous individual affected with Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa (Pulkkinen_1994). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. |
