RCV002926898 | SCV003256198 | uncertain significance | Polyglandular autoimmune syndrome, type 1 | 2022-10-26 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 247 of the AIRE protein (p.Arg247Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs147846074, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with AIRE-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects AIRE function (PMID: 29129473). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
