Inherited Ichthyoses
- Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosisAutosomal recessive
A group of recessive ichthyoses, including harlequin ichthyosis and lamellar ichthyosis, usually present at birth, often with a collodion membrane.
- 4 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
Early diagnosis guides neonatal care, emollient and keratolytic regimens, and heat-intolerance precautions.
Inheritance
- Autosomal recessive
- It takes a changed copy from each parent. With one, you are a carrier and usually unaffected; when both parents are carriers, each child has a one-in-four chance of inheriting two.
How ST14 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 3.3 kb of the gene's 50.6 kb; 2,568 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads ST14
3
positions in ST14 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 50.6 kb of ST14, introns included, not only the 3.3 kb of exons.
