Genes affected
NLRP12 (HGNC:22938): (NLR family pyrin domain containing 12) This gene encodes a member of the CATERPILLER family of cytoplasmic proteins. The encoded protein, which contains an N-terminal pyrin domain, a NACHT domain, a NACHT-associated domain, and a C-terminus leucine-rich repeat region, functions as an attenuating factor of inflammation by suppressing inflammatory responses in activated monocytes. Mutations in this gene cause familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome type 2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr618*) in the NLRP12 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in NLRP12 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs142487599, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NLRP12-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 503632). 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.

The NLRP12 c.1854C>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Tyr618*). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-54313059-G-C), which is rather high to be causative for an autosomal recessive disease. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
