Genes affected
AIRE (HGNC:360): (autoimmune regulator) This gene encodes a transcriptional regulator that forms nuclear bodies and interacts with the transcriptional coactivator CREB binding protein. The encoded protein plays an important role in immunity by regulating the expression of autoantigens and negative selection of autoreactive T-cells in the thymus. Mutations in this gene cause the rare autosomal-recessive systemic autoimmune disease termed autoimmune polyendocrinopathy with candidiasis and ectodermal dystrophy (APECED).

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu370Alafs*2) in the AIRE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in AIRE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11524731, 26141571). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive autoimmune polyendocrinopathy with candidiasis and ectodermal dysplasia (APECED) (PMID: 10946904). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as '29635insC'. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3311). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: AIRE c.1103dupC (p.Leu370AlafsX2) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The frequency data for this variant in gnomAD is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position. c.1103dupC has been reported in the literature in at-least one homozygous individual affected with Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome Type 1 (example: Ferreira_2020). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33434148). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3311). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
