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]

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 479 of the MEFV protein (p.Phe479Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs104895083, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with MEFV-related disorders with variable phenotypes and a wide range of severity (including asymptomatic individuals) (PMID: 9668175, 11175300, 22975760, 23907647, 25393764, 25708585, 26351556, 29178647, 29363386). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The leucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
