Genes affected
IFIH1 (HGNC:18873): (interferon induced with helicase C domain 1) IFIH1 encodes MDA5 which is an intracellular sensor of viral RNA that triggers the innate immune response. Sensing RNA length and secondary structure, MDA5 binds dsRNA oligonucleotides with a modified DExD/H-box helicase core and a C-terminal domain, thus leading to a proinflammatory response that includes interferons. It has been shown that Coronaviruses (CoVs) as well as various other virus families, are capable of evading the MDA5-dependent interferon response, thus impeding the activation of the innate immune response to infection. MDA5 has also been shown to play an important role in enhancing natural killer cell function in malaria infection. In addition to its protective role in antiviral responses, MDA5 has been implicated in autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases such as type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus, and Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 11, 2017The R820H variant in the IFIH1 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The R820H variant is observed in 5/10196 (0.049%) alleles from individuals of African background, in the ExAC dataset (Lek et al., 2016). The R820H variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in nearby residues (R822Q, R824K) have been reported in association with IFIH1-related phenotypes, including Singleton-Merten syndrome and Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome, supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein (Bursztejn et al., 2015; Rutsch et al., 2015; Pettersson et al., 2017; Crow et al., 2015). We interpret R820H as a variant of uncertain significance -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesOct 05, 2022The IFIH1 c.2459G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg820His. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.039% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-163128893-C-T). 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. -
