Genes affected

RAG2 (HGNC:9832): (recombination activating 2) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in the initiation of V(D)J recombination during B and T cell development. This protein forms a complex with the product of the adjacent recombination activating gene 1, and this complex can form double-strand breaks by cleaving DNA at conserved recombination signal sequences. The recombination activating gene 1 component is thought to contain most of the catalytic activity, while the N-terminal of the recombination activating gene 2 component is thought to form a six-bladed propeller in the active core that serves as a binding scaffold for the tight association of the complex with DNA. A C-terminal plant homeodomain finger-like motif in this protein is necessary for interactions with chromatin components, specifically with histone H3 that is trimethylated at lysine 4. Mutations in this gene cause Omenn syndrome, a form of severe combined immunodeficiency associated with autoimmune-like symptoms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.217C>T (NM_000536.4) variant in RAG2 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Arginine by Cysteine at amino acid 73 (p.Arg73Cys). The filtering allele frequency (the upper threshold of the 95% CI of 2/16256) of the c.217C>T variant in RAG2 is 0.00002132 for African/African American chromosomes by gnomAD v2.1.1 (no homozygous reported), which is lower than the ClinGen SCID VCEP threshold (<0.0000588) for PM2_Supporting, and therefore meets this criterion (PM2_Supporting). This variant resides within a region, amino acids 1-383, of RAG2 that is defined as a critical functional domain by the ClinGen SCID VCEP (PMID: 26996199) (PM1_Supporting).

Variant summary: RAG2 c.217C>T (p.Arg73Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251454 control chromosomes. c.217C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Syndrome (e.g. Adeli_2010, Pasic_2014, Dvorak_2014, Bai_2016). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One other clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, citing the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 73 of the RAG2 protein (p.Arg73Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs193922574, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (PMID: 20603253, 24481607, 26476733; Invitae). This variant is also known as c.811C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 36719). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RAG2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg73 amino acid residue in RAG2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with RAG2-related conditions (PMID: 21131235, 26515615, 28747913), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
