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]

This sequence change falls in intron 3 of the NLRP12 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the NLRP12 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs104895565, gnomAD 0.07%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (PMID: 18230725, 31820221). This variant is also known as NALP12 c.2072+3insT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1597). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 18230725). 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. -
