Genes affected
RNASEH2B (HGNC:25671): (ribonuclease H2 subunit B) RNase H2 is composed of a single catalytic subunit (A) and two non-catalytic subunits (B and C) and specifically degrades the RNA of RNA:DNA hybrids. The protein encoded by this gene is the non-catalytic B subunit of RNase H2, which is thought to play a role in DNA replication. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome type 2 (AGS2). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

The RNASEH2B c.529G>A (p.Ala177Thr) missense variant results in the substitution of alanine at amino acid position 177 with threonine. Across a selection of the available literature, this variant has been reported in at least 22 individuals in a homozygous state and at least 12 individuals in a compound heterozygous state, including a sibling pair (PMID: 25604658; PMID: 29239743; PMID: 31130681; PMID: 30826161; PMID: 18754903). The highest frequency of this allele in the Genome Aggregation Database is 0.002618 in the Latino/Admixed American population (version 3.1.2). This frequency is consistent with the fact that it is the mostly commonly identified variant in individuals with Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (PMID: 25243380; PMID: 31130681). Structural and functional studies, including in patient fibroblasts and mouse embryonic fibroblasts from an orthologous knock-in model, have demonstrated that the p.Ala177Thr substitution reduces RNase H2 subunit expression, disrupts the interaction interface of RNASEH2B with RNASEH2C, impairs complex stability, and reduces cellular RNase H2 activity (PMID: 26903602; PMID: 21177858; PMID: 21177854). Homozygous knock-in mice also recapitulate the interferon-stimulated gene signature observed in human patients with Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome. Based on the available evidence, the c.529G>A (p.Ala177Thr) variant is classified as pathogenic for Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome. -

The observed missense c.529G>A p.Ala177Thr variant in RNASEH2B gene has been reported in homozygous state in individuals affected with Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome Beysen D et al. 2021; Videira G et al. 2020. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RNASEH2B function Mackenzie et al. 2016. The p.Ala177Thr variant has allele frequency of 0.1% in gnomAD Exomes database. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as likely Pathogenic/ Pathogenic multiple submitters. Multiple lines of computational evidence Polyphen - Probabaly Damaging, SIFT - Damaging and MutationTaster - Disease causing predict damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The reference amino acid in RNASEH2B is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Ala at position 177 is changed to a Thr changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

RNASEH2B NM_024570.3 exon 7 p.Ala177Thr (c.529G>A):This variant has been reported in the literature in numerous individuals with Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (AGS) in the compound heterozygous and homozygous state and is reported to be the most common pathogenic variant associated with this condition (Selected publications: Crow 2006 PMID:16845400, Al-Mutairi 2018 PMID:29239743, Issa 2020 PMID:32404165, Videira 2020 PMID:32258229). This variant is present in 0.2% (40/15278) of Latino alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/13-50945445-G-A?dataset=gnomad_r3). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population, carrier status, and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as Pathogenic or Likely Pathogenic (Variation ID:1262). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. Functional studies, including a knock-in mouse model predict that this variant will impact the protein and result in downstream instability (Lim 2015 PMID:26182405, Pizzi 2015 PMID:25274781, Mackenzie 2016 PMID:26903602). However, these studies may not accurately represent in vivo biological function and at least one study suggests that the ribonuclease H activities from this variant were comparable to WT (Perrino 2009 PMID:19034401). In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic based on the data above. -

The p.Ala177Thr variant in the RNASEH2B gene has been previously reported in >20 unrelated individuals with Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (Garau et al., 2019). All individuals were homozygous or compound heterozygous. This variant has also been identified in 290/129,040 European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Well-established in vivo and in vitro functional studies of the p.Ala177Thr variant strongly suggest a deleterious effect to the protein that is sufficient to be disease-causing (Mackenzie et al., 2016; Pizzi et al., 2014). These data were assessed using the ACMG/AMP variant interpretation guidelines. In summary, there is sufficient evidence to classify the p.Ala177Thr variant as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Aicardi-Goutières syndrome based on the information above.

The RNASEH2B c.529G>A (p.Ala177Thr) variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous state in many individuals affected with AGS and related disorders (Beysen D et al., PMID: 33967934; Crow YJ et al., PMID: 16845400; Lambe J et al., PMID: 31920009; Pizzi S et al., PMID: 25274781; Rice G et al., PMID: 17846997; Videira G et al., PMID: 32258229). In at least three families, affected individuals who were homozygous for this variant showed marked intrafamilial and interfamilial phenotypic variability (Videira G et al., PMID: 32258229). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database as a germline pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in by several submitters. The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database genome aggregation database (v.2.1.1) is 0.2% in the European (non-Finnish) population which is compatible with carrier status for AGS and consistent with this variant being the most commonly identified causative variant (Rice G et al., PMID: 17846997). While computational predictors are uncertain as to the impact of this variant on the RNASEH2B protein, functional studies have shown a modest alteration of enzymatic activity and homozygous knock-in mice recapitulate the interferon-stimulated gene signature observed in human patients with AGS (Chon H et al., PMID: 19015152; Mackenzie KJ et al., PMID: 26903602; Perrino FW et al., PMID: 19034401; Pizzi S et al., PMID: 25274781). Based on available information and the ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 177 of the RNASEH2B protein (p.Ala177Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs75184679, gnomAD 0.2%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Aicardi-Goutières syndrome, and unspecified neurological disorders (PMID: 16845400, 17846997, 18754903, 19694776, 20131292, 25243380, 25343331, 25604658, 26182405, 26846091). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1262). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on RNASEH2B protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RNASEH2B function (PMID: 19015152, 19034401, 26903602). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The variant has been observed in multiple (>3) similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 16845400). The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least 4 similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 16845400)(PM3_VS). Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 26903602). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.614>=0.6). The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency:0.0015308). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

There is inter- and intra-familial variability in the presentations of individuals who are homozygous for this variant, and mildly symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals have been reported; however, neuroimaging was not performed on the asymptomatic individual (PMID: 32258229); Lymphoblastoid cells derived from a patient who harbored the A177T variant showed a destabilizing effect on the RNase H2 protein; however, it is unclear if this perturbation is solely due to the effect of the A177T variant (PMID: 25274781); Missense variants in this gene are a common cause of disease and they are underrepresented in the general population; In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; In silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: no PMID, 33872687, 34758253, 31980526, 16845400, 19034401, 26903602, 21177854, 25604658, 27539236, 25343331, 26182405, 33967934, 33307271, 29030706, 29691679, 29239743, 30609409, 30223285, 30111349, 31367981, 31529068, 31920009, 31130284, 32404165, 34573280, 25500883, 34426522, 31589614, 33258288, 32342562, 34042169, 37296061, 36705819, 36775013, 25243380, 36430958, 36964972, 27943079, 34490615, 33177673, 35012964, 37273706, 37547187, 37267771, 32258229, 25274781) -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: RNASEH2B c.529G>A (p.Ala177Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Ribonuclease H2 subunit B, wHTH domain (IPR019024) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0014 in 251300 control chromosomes. c.529G>A has been widely reported in the literature as homozygous and compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Aicardi Goutieres Syndrome (example, Crow_2006, Beysen_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The p.Ala177Thr variant (NM_024570.3 c.529G>A) in RNASEH2B has been reported in >50 homozygous and 7 compound heterozygous individuals with Aicardi-Goutieres sy ndrome related disorders (progressive spastic paraplegia), and segregated with d isease in at least 2 siblings (Rump 2016, Rice 2007, Crow 2006, Crow 2014, La Pi ana 2014, Crow 2015 and Ramatani 2010). Another >50 individuals were heterozygou s for this variant, though it is unclear if they were compound heterozygous for another variant in this gene or not. Although a second variant was not identifie d in a large number of individuals, the allele frequency in cases is statistical ly significantly increased compared to the general population (168/446 from lite rature vs 128/66494 ExAC, p value 0.0001 (Chi-square with Yates correction), sug gesting a causative role. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variat ion ID#1262) as pathogenic by multiple laboratories. In vitro functional studies provide conflicting data ( Lim 2015 and Pizzi 2015). Homozygous mouse models de monstrate phenotypes similar to Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (Mackenzie 2016). Thi s variant has been identified in 0.19% (128/66494) of European chromosomes by th e Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs75 184679). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its freq uency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. In summ ary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical si gnificance, the p.Ala177Thr variant is likely pathogenic for Aicardi-Goutieres s yndrome in an autosomal recessive manner based upon segregation studies, animal models, functional evidence and its occurrence in patients with this disease. -

The c.529G>A (p.A177T) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 7) of the RNASEH2B gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 529, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 177 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.14% (386/282704) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.22% (290/129040) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This variant has been identified in multiple homozygous individuals with Aicardi-Gouti&egrave;res Syndrome (Rice, 2007; Crow, 2015; Videira, 2020; Beysen, 2021). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. The in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -

The RNASEH2B c.529G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala177Thr. This is the most common causative variant in the RNASEH2B gene. The c.529G>A variant has been observed in over twenty unrelated families to be causative for Aicardi-Goutiéres syndrome and in two families with uncomplicated spastic paraplegia (Crow et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16845400; Crow et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25243380; Rice et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17846997). Functional studies have shown that this variant destabilizes the RNase H2 protein complex (Pizzi et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25274781). In summary, we classify this variant as pathogenic. -
