Genes affected
MEFV (HGNC:6998): (MEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin) This gene encodes a protein, also known as pyrin or marenostrin, that is an important modulator of innate immunity. Mutations in this gene are associated with Mediterranean fever, a hereditary periodic fever syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Familial Mediterranean fever Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 268 of the MEFV protein (p.Ala268Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs104895123, gnomAD 0.008%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MEFV-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 940448). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
