Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP7

The NM_000448.3(RAG1):c.2343G>T(p.Gly781=) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000274 in 1,461,866 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. G781G) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

RAG1 (HGNC:9831): (recombination activating 1) The protein encoded by this gene is involved in activation of immunoglobulin V-D-J recombination. The encoded protein is involved in recognition of the DNA substrate, but stable binding and cleavage activity also requires RAG2. Defects in this gene can be the cause of several diseases.

RAG2 (HGNC:9832): (recombination activating 2) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in the initiation of V(D)J recombination during B and T cell development. This protein forms a complex with the product of the adjacent recombination activating gene 1, and this complex can form double-strand breaks by cleaving DNA at conserved recombination signal sequences. The recombination activating gene 1 component is thought to contain most of the catalytic activity, while the N-terminal of the recombination activating gene 2 component is thought to form a six-bladed propeller in the active core that serves as a binding scaffold for the tight association of the complex with DNA. A C-terminal plant homeodomain finger-like motif in this protein is necessary for interactions with chromatin components, specifically with histone H3 that is trimethylated at lysine 4. Mutations in this gene cause Omenn syndrome, a form of severe combined immunodeficiency associated with autoimmune-like symptoms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.56).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.054 with no splicing effect.

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with RAG1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 781 of the RAG1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RAG1 protein. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. -
