Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PP1_StrongPM2_SupportingPP4_ModeratePS4
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000206.3(IL2RG):c.664C>T (p.Arg222Cys) missense variant has been reported in several (atypical) SCID cases, including male (0.5pt) patient P1 (PMID:29948574) in whom the variant was detected by WES (1pt) and there was a family history of SCID (first-degree male relatives from the maternal side with suspected primary immune deficiency, who were not available for this study; 0.5pt), additionally STAT5 phosphorylation after exposure to IL-2 was virtually absent in CD4 and CD8 T cells (1pt); together these are highly specific for SCID due to gamma chain deficiency (3pt; PP4_moderate). There are 5 genotype/phenotype positive individuals in the pedigree through 11 segregations of this variant (PMID:29948574); P1 plus four second cousins are all hemizygous for this variant and affected with atypical SCID and an additional great uncle was also affected but not available for genotyping (5+ segregations; PP1_Strong). At least 15 additional male X-SCID patients have been reported (PMIDs: 25042067, 16227049, 10794431, 7557965) with this hemizygous variant (total 11pt; PS4) and this variant is absent from gnomADv2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for X-linked T-B+ severe combined immunodeficiency due to gamma chain deficiency based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen SCID VCEP. Criteria applied: PS4, Pp1_Strong, PP4_Moderate and PM2_supporting. (VCEP specifications version 1). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA120885/MONDO:0010315/129

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 222 of the IL2RG protein (p.Arg222Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hypomorphic or atypical X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (PMID: 7557965, 9399950, 10794431, 16227049, 25042067, 29948574, 31965297). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 10027). 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 IL2RG protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects IL2RG function (PMID: 9399950, 25042067). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Previously reported pathogenic missense variant in IL2RG (c.664C>T; p.Arg222Cys), located within the γc cytokine receptor domain. Functional studies and clinical data support its damaging impact on protein function, associated with X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID). The variant is not found in population databases (PM2), and multiple lines of computational evidence and case reports support its pathogenicity (PP3, PS4, PP1, PM1, PM5, PP5). Detected in a hemizygous or homozygous state depending on zygosity. Classified as Pathogenic. Meets ACMG criteria: PM1, PM2, PM5, PP3, PS4, PP1, PP5. -
