Genes affected

AIRE (HGNC:360): (autoimmune regulator) This gene encodes a transcriptional regulator that forms nuclear bodies and interacts with the transcriptional coactivator CREB binding protein. The encoded protein plays an important role in immunity by regulating the expression of autoantigens and negative selection of autoreactive T-cells in the thymus. Mutations in this gene cause the rare autosomal-recessive systemic autoimmune disease termed autoimmune polyendocrinopathy with candidiasis and ectodermal dystrophy (APECED).

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.6056166 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.1, offset of 24, new splice context is: ccttcgatggcatcctgcAGtgg. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 21-44297654-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-44297654-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 551748.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr21-44297654-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
