SERPING1

protein-coding

serpin family G member 1, the group of Serpin peptidase inhibitors|Complement system regulators and receptors

Gene summary

This gene encodes a highly glycosylated plasma protein involved in the regulation of the complement cascade. Its encoded protein, C1 inhibitor, inhibits activated C1r and C1s of the first complement component and thus regulates complement activation. It is synthesized in the liver, and its deficiency is associated with hereditary angioneurotic oedema (HANE). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same isoform.

hereditary angioedema with C1Inh deficiencyDEFINITIVE

Inheritance Pattern: AD

Disease ID:MONDO:0033946

Submitter: ClinGen

The relationship between *SERPING1* and hereditary angioedema with C1Inh deficiency (HAE-C1-INH), an autosomal dominant disorder, was evaluated using the ClinGen Clinical Validity Framework as of May, 2022. *SERPING1* encodes C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH), involved in the regulation of the complement cascade by inhibiting activated C1r and C1s of the first complement component. Hereditary angioedema is characterized by recurrent episodes of the accumulation of fluids outside of the blood vessels, causing rapid swelling of tissues in the hands, feet, limbs, face, intestinal tract, or airway. The majority of HAE cases has a *SERPING1* variant as the underlying cause, which results in C1-INH deficiency. Two variants of C1-INH-HAE are described: C1-INH type I results from a failure to synthesize C1-INH, whereas in type II, an abnormal, non-functional protein is synthesized (PMID: 34065094). *SERPING1* was first reported in relation to autosomal dominant HAE-C1-INH as early as 1989 by Ariga et al (PMID: 2723063). More than a 100 nonsense, splice site, frameshift, deletion/duplication and missense variants have been reported in humans in the ClinVar database. Evidence supporting this gene-disease relationship includes case-level data and experimental data. Summary of Case Level Data (12 points): Variants in this gene have been reported in at least 13 probands in 7 publications (PMID: 2723063, 3587308, 35386643, 31982983, 2118657, 12402344, 7883978). Variants segregated with disease in several additional family members (PMID: 3587308, 31982983). The mechanism for disease is haploinsufficiency (HAE-C1-INH type I) and dominant negative (HAE-C1-INH type II). Summary of experimental data (6 points): This gene-disease association is supported by in vitro functional assays and animal models. C1-INH plays a central role in the kallikrein-kinin system. C1-INH has a crucial role in regulating important physiological pathways including complement activation, blood coagulation, fibrinolysis and the generation of kinins (PMID: 35958943, 9234243). SERPING1 performs a role similar to PLG and F12, which are also involved in the coagulation and complement activation pathways (PMID: 9234243, 33535668). Serping1 -/- mouse has been recently described, which recapitulates the acute angioedema phenotype (PMID: 34354123). Heterozygous C1 esterase inhibitor deficient mice showed significantly lower serum levels of murine C1-INH and increased vascular permeability, which were restored to wild-type levels when AAV-mediated human C1-INH was introduced to heterozygous mice (PMID: 30059156). In summary, *SERPING*1 is definitively associated with autosomal dominant hereditary angioedema with C1Inh deficiency. This has been repeatedly demonstrated in both the research and clinical diagnostic settings, and has been upheld over time.

Function
FUNCTION: Activation of the C1 complex is under control of the C1- inhibitor. It forms a proteolytically inactive stoichiometric complex with the C1r or C1s proteases. May play a potentially crucial role in regulating important physiological pathways including complement activation, blood coagulation, fibrinolysis and the generation of kinins. Very efficient inhibitor of FXIIa. Inhibits chymotrypsin and kallikrein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8495195}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) [MIM:106100]: An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by episodic local swelling involving subcutaneous or submucous tissue of the upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, face, extremities, and genitalia. Hereditary angioedema due to C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency is comprised of two clinically indistinguishable forms. In hereditary angioedema type 1, serum levels of C1 esterase inhibitor are decreased, while in type 2, the levels are normal or elevated, but the protein is non-functional. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12773530, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1363816, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1451784, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14635117, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16409206, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2118657, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2296585, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22994404, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2365061, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24456027, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3178731, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7814636, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7883978, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8172583, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8529136, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8755917, ECO:0000269|Ref.41}.
