Genes affected
IL6ST (HGNC:6021): (interleukin 6 cytokine family signal transducer) The protein encoded by this gene is a signal transducer shared by many cytokines, including interleukin 6 (IL6), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), and oncostatin M (OSM). This protein functions as a part of the cytokine receptor complex. The activation of this protein is dependent upon the binding of cytokines to their receptors. vIL6, a protein related to IL6 and encoded by the Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, can bypass the interleukin 6 receptor (IL6R) and directly activate this protein. Knockout studies in mice suggest that this gene plays a critical role in regulating myocyte apoptosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 26, 2024The c.2618C>T (p.A873V) alteration is located in exon 17 (coding exon 15) of the IL6ST gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2618, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 873 to be replaced by a valine (V). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 11, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 873 of the IL6ST protein (p.Ala873Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs201093293, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with IL6ST-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1519246). 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 valine 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. -
