Genes affected

NLRP3 (HGNC:16400): (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) This gene encodes a pyrin-like protein containing a pyrin domain, a nucleotide-binding site (NBS) domain, and a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) motif. This protein interacts with the apoptosis-associated speck-like protein PYCARD/ASC, which contains a caspase recruitment domain, and is a member of the NLRP3 inflammasome complex. This complex functions as an upstream activator of NF-kappaB signaling, and it plays a role in the regulation of inflammation, the immune response, and apoptosis. The SARS-CoV 3a protein, a transmembrane pore-forming viroporin, has been shown to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome via the formation of ion channels in macrophages. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (FCAS), Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS), chronic infantile neurological cutaneous and articular (CINCA) syndrome, neonatal-onset multisystem inflammatory disease (NOMID), keratoendotheliitis fugax hereditarian, and deafness, autosomal dominant 34, with or without inflammation. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. Alternative 5' UTR structures are suggested by available data; however, insufficient evidence is available to determine if all of the represented 5' UTR splice patterns are biologically valid.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_001243133.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), NLRP3. . Gene score misZ 2.1417 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 3.5037 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, keratitis fugax hereditaria, cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome, Muckle-Wells syndrome, familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 1, CINCA syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.985
• PP5: Variant 1-247424363-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-247424363-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 97982.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr1-247424363-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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 NLRP3 protein function. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome (PMID: 12355493, 17393462, 20131270, 15593220). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also called L305P in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 97982). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces leucine with proline at codon 307 of the NLRP3 protein (p.Leu307Pro). The leucine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between leucine and proline. -
