Genes affected
MEFV (HGNC:6998): (MEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin) This gene encodes a protein, also known as pyrin or marenostrin, that is an important modulator of innate immunity. Mutations in this gene are associated with Mediterranean fever, a hereditary periodic fever syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.056805104).
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 6 AR,AD,SD geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 503 of the MEFV protein (p.Ser503Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs190705322, gnomAD 0.1%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with typical and atypical familial Mediterranean fever (PMID: 19531756, 21413889, 24797171, 30546872, 33747591). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 457996). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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.
