Genes affected
UNC13D (HGNC:23147): (unc-13 homolog D) This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the UNC13 family, containing similar domain structure as other family members but lacking an N-terminal phorbol ester-binding C1 domain present in other Munc13 proteins. The protein appears to play a role in vesicle maturation during exocytosis and is involved in regulation of cytolytic granules secretion. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 3, a genetically heterogeneous, rare autosomal recessive disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

The sequence change, c.2542A>C, in exon 26 results in an amino acid change, p.Ile848Leu. This sequence change has been previously described in one individual with autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (PMID: 23840885), one individual with extreme hyperferritinemia (PMID: 29977033), and one individual with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (PMID: 33408077). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low frequency of 0.28% in Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation (dbSNP rs144968313). The p.Ile848Leu change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the UNC13D protein that is known to be functional. The p.Ile848Leu substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Functional studies show p.Ile848Leu is a loss-of-function variant (PMID: 23840885). Due to the lack of sufficient evidence, the clinical significance of the p.Ile848Leu change remains unknown at this time.

The UNC13D c.2542A>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile848Leu. This variant was reported in an individual with autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome who had inherited it as part of a haplotype that also contained another variant p.Ala995Pro from the unaffected mother (Aricò et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23840885). Both variants have also been reported in an individual with septic shock and macrophage activation syndrome (Kernan et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29977033) as well as in two individuals with polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (Meng et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33408077). In vitro studies in a mastocytoma cell line showed that both variants, when expressed together as well as separately, resulted in defective secretory granule exocytosis; however, it is unclear how this finding relates to cells of the immune system in vivo (Aricò et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23840885). This variant is reported in 0.27% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time its clinical significance is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
