Genes affected
IRF4 (HGNC:6119): (interferon regulatory factor 4) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the IRF (interferon regulatory factor) family of transcription factors, characterized by an unique tryptophan pentad repeat DNA-binding domain. The IRFs are important in the regulation of interferons in response to infection by virus, and in the regulation of interferon-inducible genes. This family member is lymphocyte specific and negatively regulates Toll-like-receptor (TLR) signaling that is central to the activation of innate and adaptive immune systems. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene and the IgH locus, t(6;14)(p25;q32), may be a cause of multiple myeloma. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 09, 2022In 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. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects IRF4 function (PMID: 29537367). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with IRF4-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs753781892, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant, c.136_138del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the IRF4 protein (p.Glu46del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -
