Description

In 2 African American sibs with autosomal recessive pigmented hypomaturation-type amelogenesis imperfecta (AI2A1; 204700), Hart et al. (2004) identified a homozygous c.458G-A transition in the KLK4 gene, resulting in a trp153-to-ter (W153X) nonsense mutation at a highly conserved residue. The truncated protein would lack the final 101 amino acids, including serine-107 of the catalytic triad. The mutation was not found in 134 African American control chromosomes. Wright et al. (2011) identified the same mutation in 2 affected members of an unrelated African American family with amelogenesis imperfecta.

Description

The p.Trp153X variant in KLK4 has been reported in 2 homozygous individuals with amelogenesis imperfecta and segregated with disease in at least 1 affected relative from 1 family (Hart 2004 PMID: 15235027, Wright 2011 PMID: 21597265). This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 6079) and has been identified in 0.22% (92/41468) of African/African American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v4.0.0). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 153, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function variants in the KLK4 gene have been reported in individuals with autosomal recessive amelogenesis imperfecta (Wang 2013 PMID: 23355523, Seymen 2015 PMID: 26124219, Smith 2017 PMID: 28611678, Lee 2022 PMID: 35207639). Additionally, studies have shown that KLK4 null mice had defective enamel, recapitulating features of the human phenotype (Simmer 2009 PubMed: 19578120, Nunez 2016 PMID: 26620968). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive amelogenesis imperfecta. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM3.
