Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000383.4(AIRE):​c.47C>G​(p.Thr16Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000072 in 1,388,486 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T16M) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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).

Variant summary: AIRE c.47C>G (p.Thr16Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the HSR domain (IPR004865) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent from 135998 control chromosomes. c.47C>G has been reported in the literature in at least one homozygous individual affected with Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome Type 1 (e.g. Yan_2020). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. A different variant located at the same codon (c.347C>T, p.Thr16Met) has been classified as pathogenic, supporting a critical relevance of this residue to AIRE protein function. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32358377). No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
