Genes affected
IL7R (HGNC:6024): (interleukin 7 receptor) The protein encoded by this gene is a receptor for interleukin 7 (IL7). The function of this receptor requires the interleukin 2 receptor, gamma chain (IL2RG), which is a common gamma chain shared by the receptors of various cytokines, including interleukins 2, 4, 7, 9, and 15. This protein has been shown to play a critical role in V(D)J recombination during lymphocyte development. Defects in this gene may be associated with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

Variant summary: IL7R c.644G>T (p.Gly215Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III domain (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250938 control chromosomes (gnomAD v2.1). c.644G>T has been observed in individuals affected with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (e.g. Lebet_2008, Recher_2011, Kwan_2013, Suratannon_2020 and Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae) internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18641513, 23810098, 22039266, 32373116). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 36396). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

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

The G215V variant in the IL7R gene has been previously published in association with SCID (Lebet et al., 2008; Kwan et al., 2013). The variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The G215V variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. However, this substitution occurs at a position in the Fibronectin type-III domain that is conserved across species, and in silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Missense variants in nearby residues (S218N, W220C) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with SCID (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. -

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

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 215 of the IL7R protein (p.Gly215Val). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of severe combined immunodeficiency (PMID: 18641513, 23810098; Invitae). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt IL7R protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 36396). -
