Genes affected

UNC13D (HGNC:23147): (unc-13 homolog D) This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the UNC13 family, containing similar domain structure as other family members but lacking an N-terminal phorbol ester-binding C1 domain present in other Munc13 proteins. The protein appears to play a role in vesicle maturation during exocytosis and is involved in regulation of cytolytic granules secretion. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 3, a genetically heterogeneous, rare autosomal recessive disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 15 of the UNC13D gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in UNC13D are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14622600). This variant is present in population databases (rs777759523, gnomAD 0.01%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (PMID: 14622600, 18492689, 19704116, 21248318, 25573973). 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: 1999). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The UNC13D c.1389+1G>A variant occurs in a canonical splice site (donor) and is therefore predicted to disrupt or distort the normal gene product. The variant has been reported in six studies in which it is found in a total of ten individuals with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, including two siblings in a homozygous state, seven individuals in a compound heterozygous state, and one in a heterozygous state in whom a second variant was not detected (Feldmann et al. 2003; Zur Stadt et al. 2006; Santoro et al. 2008; Wood et al. 2009; Sieni et al. 2011; Nakamura et al. 2015). The variant was absent from ten controls but is reported at a frequency of 0.00009 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Due to the potential impact of splice donor variants and the supporting evidence from the literature, the c.1389+1G>A variant is classified as pathogenic for familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
