Genes affected
FASLG (HGNC:11936): (Fas ligand) This gene is a member of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily. The primary function of the encoded transmembrane protein is the induction of apoptosis triggered by binding to FAS. The FAS/FASLG signaling pathway is essential for immune system regulation, including activation-induced cell death (AICD) of T cells and cytotoxic T lymphocyte induced cell death. It has also been implicated in the progression of several cancers. Defects in this gene may be related to some cases of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoDec 20, 2017FASLG NM_000639.2 exon 3 c.451+7A>G: This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.8% (206/24030) of African alleles including 1 homozygote in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs201525996). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:293738). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. This variant is an intronic variant with no predicted change in the amino acid sequence but may have an unknown effect on splicing. Further studies are needed to understand its impact. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
