SPRR1B

Chr 1

small proline rich protein 1B

Also known as: CORNIFIN, GADD33, SPR-IB, SPRR1

The protein encoded by this gene is an envelope protein of keratinocytes. The encoded protein is crosslinked to membrane proteins by transglutaminase, forming an insoluble layer under the plasma membrane. This protein is proline-rich and contains several tandem amino acid repeats. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (gain-of-function and dominant-negative). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to gain-of-function as the predominant mechanism. Different variants in this gene may act through different mechanisms — interpret in context of the specific variant.

GOFprediction above median
DNprediction above median

Note: In-silico variant effect predictors (SIFT, PolyPhen, REVEL, CADD) may underestimate pathogenicity of missense variants in genes with GOF or DN mechanisms. Consider functional evidence and clinical context.
