Genes affected
IFIH1 (HGNC:18873): (interferon induced with helicase C domain 1) IFIH1 encodes MDA5 which is an intracellular sensor of viral RNA that triggers the innate immune response. Sensing RNA length and secondary structure, MDA5 binds dsRNA oligonucleotides with a modified DExD/H-box helicase core and a C-terminal domain, thus leading to a proinflammatory response that includes interferons. It has been shown that Coronaviruses (CoVs) as well as various other virus families, are capable of evading the MDA5-dependent interferon response, thus impeding the activation of the innate immune response to infection. MDA5 has also been shown to play an important role in enhancing natural killer cell function in malaria infection. In addition to its protective role in antiviral responses, MDA5 has been implicated in autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases such as type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus, and Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.09064327 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
BP6
Variant 2-162277413-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-162277413-A-G is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 541772.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000147 (213/1449872) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.000189 (209/1102994). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000168. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 108 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 29. This position passed quality control check.
