RCV002637283 | SCV003513067 | uncertain significance | Immunodeficiency 32B; Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial diseases due to partial IRF8 deficiency | 2022-08-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 6 of the IRF8 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the IRF8 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with IRF8-related conditions. |
