Genes affected
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]
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.

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 478 of the RAG2 protein (p.Cys478Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918573, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with severe combined immunodeficiency (PMID: 8810255, 11133745). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13129). 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 RAG2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RAG2 function (PMID: 8810255, 20234091, 26692406, 29772310, 31388879). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
