Genes affected
NLRP12 (HGNC:22938): (NLR family pyrin domain containing 12) This gene encodes a member of the CATERPILLER family of cytoplasmic proteins. The encoded protein, which contains an N-terminal pyrin domain, a NACHT domain, a NACHT-associated domain, and a C-terminus leucine-rich repeat region, functions as an attenuating factor of inflammation by suppressing inflammatory responses in activated monocytes. Mutations in this gene cause familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome type 2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]

Familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 2 Pathogenic:1Uncertain:4
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterFeb 05, 2021The inherited c.850C>T(p.Arg284Ter)stop-gained variant identified in exon 3(of 10) of the NLRP12 gene creates a premature translation termination codon and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, loss-of-function is not an established mechanism of disease for NLRP12 related disorder. The p.Arg284Ter variant has 0.0004403 allele frequency in the gnomAD(v3) database across all populations represented in the database (67 out of 152,152 heterozygous alleles, no homozygotes), and 0.001448 allele frequency in the African/African-American sub-population (60 out of 41,450 heterozygous alleles, no homozygotes). Although the variant has been reported in a family affected with hereditary periodic fever syndrome [PMID: 18230725], functional studies show contradictory data regarding potential pathogenicity of this variant [PMID: 18230725; PMID: 21360512]. Given the lack of compelling evidence for its pathogenicity, the inherited c.850C>T(p.Arg284Ter) stop-gained variant identified in the NLRP12geneis reported as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 11, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg284*) in the NLRP12 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in NLRP12 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs104895564, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS) (PMID: 18230725). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1596). 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 are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on NLRP12 function (PMID: 18230725, 21360512). 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesSep 21, 2019The NLRP12 c.850C>T; p.Arg284Ter variant (rs104895564) is published in the medical literature in one family with a hereditary periodic fever syndrome (Jeru 2008, Jeru 2011), but has also been reported in a reportedly unaffected individual (Rodriguez-Flores 2014). The variant is reported in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 1596) and in the African population with an allele frequency of 0.1% (34/24916 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Functional studies have shown conflicting NFKB activation by this variant (Borghini 2011, Jeru 2008). Although the physiological relevance of NLRP12 in periodic fever syndrome is certain, if disease is caused by loss-of-function variants remained to be determined (Tuncer 2014). Due to conflicting information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. References: Borghini S et al.
