Genes affected
NLRP1 (HGNC:14374): (NLR family pyrin domain containing 1) This gene encodes a member of the Ced-4 family of apoptosis proteins. Ced-family members contain a caspase recruitment domain (CARD) and are known to be key mediators of programmed cell death. The encoded protein contains a distinct N-terminal pyrin-like motif, which is possibly involved in protein-protein interactions. This protein interacts strongly with caspase 2 and weakly with caspase 9. Overexpression of this gene was demonstrated to induce apoptosis in cells. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 07, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1438 of the NLRP1 protein (p.Arg1438Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs201167590, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NLRP1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 502755). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The glutamine 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. -
NLRP1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMar 08, 2023The NLRP1 c.4313G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1438Gln. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.13% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-5418183-C-T), which may be too common to be an unreported disease-causing variant. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
