Genes affected

NLRP1 (HGNC:14374): (NLR family pyrin domain containing 1) This gene encodes a member of the Ced-4 family of apoptosis proteins. Ced-family members contain a caspase recruitment domain (CARD) and are known to be key mediators of programmed cell death. The encoded protein contains a distinct N-terminal pyrin-like motif, which is possibly involved in protein-protein interactions. This protein interacts strongly with caspase 2 and weakly with caspase 9. Overexpression of this gene was demonstrated to induce apoptosis in cells. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.4394A>G (p.K1465R) alteration is located in exon 17 (coding exon 17) of the NLRP1 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 4394, causing the lysine (K) at amino acid position 1465 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
