Genes affected

IL18BP (HGNC:5987): (interleukin 18 binding protein) The protein encoded by this gene functions as an inhibitor of the proinflammatory cytokine, IL18. It binds IL18, prevents the binding of IL18 to its receptor, and thus inhibits IL18-induced IFN-gamma production, resulting in reduced T-helper type 1 immune responses. This protein is constitutively expressed and secreted in mononuclear cells. Elevated level of this protein is detected in the intestinal tissues of patients with Crohn's disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]

This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the IL18BP gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the IL18BP protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with IL18BP-related conditions. 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. -
