Genes affected

TREM2 (HGNC:17761): (triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2) This gene encodes a membrane protein that forms a receptor signaling complex with the TYRO protein tyrosine kinase binding protein. The encoded protein functions in immune response and may be involved in chronic inflammation by triggering the production of constitutive inflammatory cytokines. Defects in this gene are a cause of polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]

The c.451G>A (p.E151K) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the TREM2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 451, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 151 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 151 of the TREM2 protein (p.Glu151Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs79011726, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with TREM2-related conditions (PMID: 25886450, 28620717, 32638105). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1517663). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The lysine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect TREM2 function (PMID: 27589997). 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. -
