3billion, Medical Genetics RCV000789034 SCV002058846 pathogenic Kindler syndrome 2022-01-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant (PVS1_VS). The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000419593, PMID:14962093).It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000035, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000481477 SCV003443361 pathogenic not provided 2024-02-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln226Profs*17) in the FERMT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FERMT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14962093, 21936020). This variant is present in population databases (rs748240859, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Kindler syndrome (PMID: 14962093, 30838128). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 419593). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004755927 SCV005366880 pathogenic FERMT1-related disorder 2024-06-04 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The FERMT1 c.676dupC variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Gln226Profs*17). This variant has been reported in the homozygous state to be causative for Kindler syndrome in multiple individuals (Ashton et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 14962093; Gkaitatzi et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30838128). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. We interpret this variant as pathogenic.
