Ectodermal dysplasia v2.3 SREBF1 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram Gene: srebf1 has been classified as Amber List (Moderate Evidence).
Ectodermal dysplasia v2.2 SREBF1 Achchuthan Shanmugasundram gene: SREBF1 was added
gene: SREBF1 was added to Ectodermal dysplasia. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: SREBF1 was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: SREBF1 were set to 31790666; 32497488; 32902915; 33253727; 33742461
Phenotypes for gene: SREBF1 were set to Ichthyosis, follicular, with atrichia and photophobia syndrome 2, MIM# 619016, MONDO:0100221; Mucoepithelial dysplasia, hereditary, MIM# 158310, MONDO:0008017
Review for gene: SREBF1 was set to GREEN
Added comment: Comment on classification of this gene: The rating for this gene should be added as GREEN, as this gene has been implicated in both hereditary hair and skin conditions, as identified from monoallelic variants from at least 18 unrelated individuals/ families from multiple ethnicities, and supported by results from in vitro functional studies.

As reviewed by Zornitza Stark, heterozygous variants in 11 unrelated, ethnically diverse individuals has resulted in IFAP syndrome (MIM# 619016), which is characterised generally by moderate or severe hypotrichosis or atrichia (hair), ichthyosis follicularis (skin), and photophobia, Meibomian gland dysfunction, keratitis and/or cataract (eye) (PMID:32497488). Similarly, autosomal-dominant IFAP syndrome was also observed in another report of a Japanese woman and her daughter displaying heterozygous variant c.1669C>T (p.Arg557Cys) in SREBF1 gene (PMID:33253727).

Seven patients from four families displaying heterozygous variants of SREBF1 gene (c.1669C>T (p.Arg557Cys) and c.1670G>A (p.Arg557His)) were reported with HMD (MIM# 158310), which is characterised by chronic keratitis, non-scarring alopecia, mucosal erythema, keratosis pilaris, perineal erythematous intertrigo, psoriatic-like perineal plaques, and involvement of the conjunctival mucosa (PMID:31790666). There are also two other reports of patients with c.1669C>T (p.Arg557Cys) variant displaying autosomal-dominant HMD (PMID:32902915, PMID:33742461). The clinical indications of IFAP and HMD suggests that these two diseases share a common clinical spectrum.

The association of both IFAP and HMD to SREBF1 has been documented in OMIM. In addition, results from in vitro investigation of SREBP1 variants confirms the essential role of SREBF1 in epidermal differentiation, skin barrier formation, hair growth, and eye function (PMID:32497488).
