Genes affected

IFNA21 (HGNC:5424): (interferon alpha 21) This gene is a member of the alpha interferon gene cluster on the short arm of chromosome 9. Interferons are cytokines produced in response to viral infection that mediate the immune response and interfere with viral replication. The encoded protein is a type I interferon and may play a specific role in the antiviral response to rubella virus. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

The c.444A>C (p.Q148H) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the IFNA21 gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 444, causing the glutamine (Q) at amino acid position 148 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
