Description

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 247 of the KERA protein (p.Asn247Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KERA-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). This variant disrupts the p.Asn247 amino acid residue in KERA. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10802664, 17679937, 28677912). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
