Skeletal dysplasia v0.183 KIF5B Zornitza Stark reviewed gene: KIF5B: Rating: GREEN; Mode of pathogenicity: None; Publications: ; Phenotypes: Skeletal dysplasia, MONDO:0018230, KIF5B-related, Kyphomelic dysplasia; Mode of inheritance: MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Skeletal dysplasia v0.183 KIF5B Chirag Patel Classified gene: KIF5B as Green List (high evidence)
Skeletal dysplasia v0.183 KIF5B Chirag Patel Gene: kif5b has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Skeletal dysplasia v0.182 KIF5B Chirag Patel gene: KIF5B was added
gene: KIF5B was added to Skeletal dysplasia. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: KIF5B was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: KIF5B were set to PMID: 35342932
Phenotypes for gene: KIF5B were set to Kyphomelic dysplasia, no OMIM #
Review for gene: KIF5B was set to GREEN
Added comment: 4 individuals with Kyphomelic dysplasia (severe bowing of the limbs, sharp angulation of the femora and humeri, short stature, narrow thorax, distinctive facial features, and neonatal respiratory distress. WES found de novo heterozygous missense variants in KIF5B encoding kinesin-1 heavy chain. All variants involved conserved amino acids in or close to the ATPase activity-related motifs in the catalytic motor domain of the KIF5B protein. No functional studies of variants.

Previously 2 animal model experiments showed that loss of function of KIF5B can cause kyphomelic dysplasia. First, chondrocyte-specific knockout of Kif5b in mice was shown to produce a disorganized growth plate, leading to bone deformity. Second, double mutants disrupting the two zebrafish kif5b caused abnormal skeletal morphogenesis and the curvature of Meckel's and ceratohyal cartilages.
