RCV000585083 | SCV000604184 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2022-02-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The MEFV c.986G>A; p.Arg329His variant (rs104895112) has been described in the literature in several individuals affected with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), atypical FMF, or fibromyalgia (Lainka 2012, Feng 2009, Portincasa 2013, Yao 2016). This variant is listed in ClinVar (Variation ID: 97557) and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.16% (441/279644 alleles, including 2 homozygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at position 329 is weakly conserved, but computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.166). Due to the wide range of phenyotypes and lack of functional data, the significance of the p.Arg329His variant is uncertain at this time. References: Lainka E et al.

RCV000855598 | SCV000696084 | likely benign | not specified | 2023-02-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: MEFV c.986G>A (p.Arg329His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0016 in 249988 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0021 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. This frequency is not higher than predicted for a pathogenic variant in MEFV causing Familial Mediterranean Fever (0.0016 vs 0.022), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.986G>A, has been reported in the literature in patients in association with FMF, atypical FMF, MS and fibromyalgia (e.g. Feng_2009, Kuempfel_2012, Berdeli_2012, Pauwels_2013, Heshin-Bekenstein_2015, Yao_2016, Balta_2018, Zhang_2018). The phenotypic variability seen with this variant and genotypic information are not clearly specific to FMF, and at least some of these reported FMF patients were not responsive to colchicine therapy (Hashkes_2012). Therefore, these reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Mediterranean Fever. Recently, the International Study Group for Systemic Autoinflammatory Diseases (INSIAD) involving experts on hereditary recurrent fever genetics, provided a classification of likely benign with a validated status for c.986G>A (Van Gijn_2018). Ten clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as likely benign (n=2) and VUS (n=8). At-least one submitter has re-classified this variant as likely benign. Another submitter has cited overlapping evidence utilized in the context of our evaluation. We have followed this variant for over four years and previously classified it as a VUS. In our review of published evidence spanning over 10 years (2009-2019), the majority of evidence appears to point toward a non-pathogenic outcome however more data is required to conclusively determine the clinical consequences of this variant. Therefore, based on the evidence outlined above, this variant in isolation is re-classified as likely benign. |

RCV000083809 | SCV001279959 | uncertain significance | Familial Mediterranean fever | 2017-04-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. |

In addition, this variant was identified in at least 1 individual with fibromyalgia (Feng 2009 PMID:20041150). This variant is present in 0.2% (63/30562) of South Asian alleles amd 1.1% (111/10,054) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles, including 2 homozygotes, in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/16-3299705-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:97557). This variant amino acid Histidine (His) is present in >30 species including mammals and is not well conserved among evolutionarily distant species; this suggests that this variant may not impact the protein. Additional computational prediction tools do not suggest an impact. In summary, data on this variant is conflicting and insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. |
