Genes affected
MEFV (HGNC:6998): (MEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin) This gene encodes a protein, also known as pyrin or marenostrin, that is an important modulator of innate immunity. Mutations in this gene are associated with Mediterranean fever, a hereditary periodic fever syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: The MEFV c.2081_2083delTGA (p.Met694del) variant involves an in-frame deletion of three nucleotides. One in silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. The variant is absent in 121410 control chromosomes while it was reported in several FMF patients in heterozygosity indicating a dominant inheritance. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This variant, c.2081_2083del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the MEFV protein (p.Met694del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs104895091, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Familial Mediterranean Fever (PMID: 10024914, 10787449, 19479870, 21246368, 29047407). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2556). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects MEFV function (PMID: 33733382). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The MEFV c.2081_2083del; p.Met694del variant (rs104895091) is reported in the literature in multiple individuals and families with a clinical diagnosis of familial Mediterranean fever; individuals of northern European ancestry often had clinical symptoms without an additional pathogenic variant (Booth 2000, Booty 2009, Rowczenio 2017), whereas two individuals of Moroccan ancestry had an additional pathogenic variant consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance (Belmahi 2012). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 2556), but is only observed on two alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant deletes a single methionine residue leaving the rest of the protein in-frame. Considering available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. References: Belmahi L et al.
