Genes affected
RAG1 (HGNC:9831): (recombination activating 1) The protein encoded by this gene is involved in activation of immunoglobulin V-D-J recombination. The encoded protein is involved in recognition of the DNA substrate, but stable binding and cleavage activity also requires RAG2. Defects in this gene can be the cause of several diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
RAG2 (HGNC:9832): (recombination activating 2) This gene encodes a protein that is involved in the initiation of V(D)J recombination during B and T cell development. This protein forms a complex with the product of the adjacent recombination activating gene 1, and this complex can form double-strand breaks by cleaving DNA at conserved recombination signal sequences. The recombination activating gene 1 component is thought to contain most of the catalytic activity, while the N-terminal of the recombination activating gene 2 component is thought to form a six-bladed propeller in the active core that serves as a binding scaffold for the tight association of the complex with DNA. A C-terminal plant homeodomain finger-like motif in this protein is necessary for interactions with chromatin components, specifically with histone H3 that is trimethylated at lysine 4. Mutations in this gene cause Omenn syndrome, a form of severe combined immunodeficiency associated with autoimmune-like symptoms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: RAG1 c.2923C>T (p.Arg975Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250554 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2923C>T has been reported in the literature as a biallelic genotype in multiple individuals affected with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Syndrome/Omenn Syndrome (e.g. Schuetz_2008, Schonberger_2009, Shen_2019, Vignesh_2021, Tanita_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on recombination efficiency in vitro and found that the variant has approximately 3% of the wildtype activity (e.g. Schuetz_2008). Additionally, another variant affecting the same amino acid, c.2924G>A (p.Arg975Gln), has been classified as pathogenic, suggesting p.Arg975 is important for proper protein function. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19064334, 18463379, 31632441, 35281013, 33628209). One submitter has provided a clinical-significance assessment for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 975 of the RAG1 protein (p.Arg975Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918570, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with granulomatous disease and/or Omenn syndrome (PMID: 18463379, 19064334, 24290284, 31632441, 36279417). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13159). 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 RAG1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RAG1 function (PMID: 24290284, 36279417). This variant disrupts the p.Arg975 amino acid residue in RAG1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 11133745, 24290284, 27484032). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
