Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the IFNGR1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Associates with IFNGR2 to form a receptor for the cytokine interferon gamma (IFNG) (PubMed:7615558, PubMed:2971451, PubMed:7617032, PubMed:10986460). Ligand binding stimulates activation of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway (PubMed:7673114). Plays an essential role in the IFN-gamma pathway that is required for the cellular response to infectious agents (PubMed:20015550). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10986460, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20015550, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2971451, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7615558, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7617032, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7673114}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Immunodeficiency 27A (IMD27A) [MIM:209950]: A form of Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease, a rare condition caused by impairment of interferon-gamma mediated immunity. It is characterized by predisposition to illness caused by moderately virulent mycobacterial species, such as Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, environmental non-tuberculous mycobacteria, and by the more virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Other microorganisms rarely cause severe clinical disease in individuals with susceptibility to mycobacterial infections, with the exception of Salmonella which infects less than 50% of these individuals. Clinical outcome severity depends on the degree of impairment of interferon-gamma mediated immunity. Some patients die of overwhelming mycobacterial disease with lepromatous-like lesions in early childhood, whereas others develop, later in life, disseminated but curable infections with tuberculoid granulomas. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10811850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11139207, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15589309, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16195661, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16715106, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17514500, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20015550, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20186794, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22708048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25592983, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27868075, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28744922, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9389728}.

Some patients die of overwhelming mycobacterial disease with lepromatous-like lesions in early childhood, whereas others develop, later in life, disseminated but curable infections with tuberculoid granulomas. IMD27B commonly presents with recurrent, moderately severe infections with environmental mycobacteria or BCG. Salmonellosis is present in about 5% of patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10192386, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11335768}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
