Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 1P and 4B. PP3BS2

The NM_014613.3(FAF2):c.355C>T(p.Arg119Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000675 in 1,614,040 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R119H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

FAF2 (HGNC:24666): (Fas associated factor family member 2) The protein encoded by this gene is highly expressed in peripheral blood of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), compared to normal individuals. It may play a role in regulating the resistance to apoptosis that is observed in T cells and eosinophils of AD patients. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.355C>T (p.R119C) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the FAF2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 355, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 119 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
