Two novel recessive mutations in KRT14 identified in a cohort of 21 Spanish families with epidermolysis bullosa simplex

Abstract: This study further confirms the genotype-phenotype correlation established for EBS in other ethnic groups, and is the first in a Mediterranean country (excluding Israel). This study adds two novel recessive mutations to the worldwide record to date, which includes a total of 14 mutations. As in previous reports, the recessive mutations resulted in a lack of keratin K14, giving rise to a generalized and severe presentation.

“…The reticulated pattern of erythema, pigmentation, or both observed in these patients appears distinct and perhaps pathognomonic and is also noted by Komori et al in a recent report. It is different from the pigmentation observed in EBS with mottled pigmentation (EBS‐MP), a condition due to different mutations in K5 (p.Pro25Leu, p.Gly138Glu, p.[Ile140AsnfsX0]+[Asp328His], p.Gly550AlafsX77), K14 (p.Met119Thr, p.Ile373GlufsX53), and EXPH5 encoding exophilin‐5 . The condition is described as mottled pigmentation that may or may not be related to healing of blisters plus punctate palmoplantar keratoderma and onychodystrophy .…”

“…The condition is described as mottled pigmentation that may or may not be related to healing of blisters plus punctate palmoplantar keratoderma and onychodystrophy . Mutations in the V1 domain of the nonhelical head domain of K5 have been found in most cases of EBS‐MP . It is unclear why this mutation results in this unique clinical phenotype, though research done by Irvine et al indicates that the nonhelical head domain of K5 may be implicated in melanosome transport.…”

“…In EBS, skin fragility is thought to result from a defective assembly, growth and impaired stability of KIF (3,4). Mutations, usually missense substitutions, cluster in distinct domains of keratins and the severity of clinical manifestations seems to correlate with the localisation of these mutations (5)(6)(7). In the most severe form, the Dowling-Meara subtype (EBS-DM; MIM 131760), mutations are almost all located in the highly conserved ends of the alpha-helical rod domain of K5 and K14, whereas in the mildest variants, the 'localised EBS' (previously Weber-Cockayne; MIM 131800) and the 'EBS, other generalised' (previously Köebner; MIM 131900), mutations affect less conserved sequences of the alpha-helical rod domain, such as the linker regions.…”

“…The severity of EBS is considered to depend on several factors, including the location of the mutations in KRT5 and KRT14, as well as biochemical differences of substituted amino acids . In example, other substitutions of 428 alanine reported so far: p.Ala428Thr and p.Ala428Val were observed in patients with localized and generalized intermediate subtypes, respectively . Furthermore, as it has been shown by Hovnanian in 1993, the heptad position of substituted amino acid in keratin helical domain is important with respect to its clinical significance .…”
