This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 204 of the MEFV protein (p.Arg204His). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial Mediterranean fever (PMID: 28943464). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 253024). 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: "Possibly 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. -

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

Variant summary: MEFV c.611G>A (p.Arg204His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.7e-05 in 233862 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.611G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Familial Mediterranean Fever (example: Ebadi_2017, Turkucar_2021). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial Mediterranean Fever. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
