Genes affected
FASLG (HGNC:11936): (Fas ligand) This gene is a member of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily. The primary function of the encoded transmembrane protein is the induction of apoptosis triggered by binding to FAS. The FAS/FASLG signaling pathway is essential for immune system regulation, including activation-induced cell death (AICD) of T cells and cytotoxic T lymphocyte induced cell death. It has also been implicated in the progression of several cancers. Defects in this gene may be related to some cases of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.109C>G (p.P37A) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the FASLG gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 109, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 37 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Aug 28, 2021
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline with alanine at codon 37 of the FASLG protein (p.Pro37Ala). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between proline and alanine. This variant is present in population databases (rs145731782, ExAC 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FASLG-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. 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. -
