Comment on publications: Numerous cases. Ehlers–Danlos Syndromes, Rare Types, Brady et al., 2017 (PMID:28306225) : To date, 10 patients with kEDS-FKBP14 from nine independent families have been described: Five pediatric (<12 years), three adolescents (16 years), and two adults (42- and 48-year-old). Baumann et al., 2012 (PMID:22265013), Aldeeri et al., 2014 (PMID:24773188), Murray et al., 2014 (PMID:24677762), Alazami et al., 2016 (PMID:27023906), Dordoni et al., 2016 (PMID:27149304). Sufficient clinical data are available for nine unrelated patients.

From Ehlers–Danlos Syndromes, Rare Types, Brady et al., 2017 (PMID:28306225):
Recently, a number of rare autosomal recessive entities with distinct molecular and biochemical abnormalities that clinically overlap with kEDS have been described; kEDS due to PLOD1 mutations, kEDS due to FKBP14 mutations, the Brittle cornea syndrome (BCS) (ZNF469 and PRDM5), the spondylodysplastic form of EDS caused by SLC39A13 mutations (previously called spondylocheirodysplastic EDS), and musculocontractural EDS (CHST14 and DSE).

This gene is listed in the Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Variant Database https://eds.gene.le.ac.uk/home.php?select_db=FKBP14

In relation to the EDS pathogenetic scheme, FKBP14 belongs to 'Disorders of collagen folding and collagen cross-linking'. The scheme regroups EDS subtypes for which the proteins, coded by the causative genes, function within the same pathway, and which are likely to have shared pathogenic mechanisms, based on current knowledge.
