GeneDx RCV000221297 SCV000278937 pathogenic not provided 2021-11-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Also known as p.(R260W); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26931528, 29331074, 29196621, 28569730, 20472245, 25596455, 17178985, 24501247, 11992256, 29773275, 28716882, 19302049, 23703389, 15020601, 31086329)
Invitae RCV001067187 SCV001232233 pathogenic Cryopyrin associated periodic syndrome 2023-10-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 262 of the NLRP3 protein (p.Arg262Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS) (PMID: 11992256, 20472245). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as R260W. The NLRP3 gene is also known as CIAS1 in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4374). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NLRP3 function (PMID: 15020601, 23703389). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000221297 SCV001472486 pathogenic not provided 2019-12-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The NLRP3 c.784C>T; p.Arg262Trp variant (rs121908150), also known as R260W in traditional nomenclature, is reported in the literature in multiple individuals and segregates with disease in families affected with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) (Alejandre 2014, Dode 2002, Lepore 2010, Parker 2016, Rieber 2015). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 4374), and is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at codon 262 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. In vitro functional analyses demonstrate defects in inflammasome activation (Rieber 2015). Additionally, other variants at this codon (c.785G>T, p.Arg262Leu; c.785G>C, p.Arg262Pro) have been reported in individuals with CAPS (Neven 2004). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Alejandre N et al.
