Genes affected
NOD2 (HGNC:5331): (nucleotide binding oligomerization domain containing 2) This gene is a member of the Nod1/Apaf-1 family and encodes a protein with two caspase recruitment (CARD) domains and six leucine-rich repeats (LRRs). The protein is primarily expressed in the peripheral blood leukocytes. It plays a role in the immune response to intracellular bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) by recognizing the muramyl dipeptide (MDP) derived from them and activating the NFKB protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Crohn disease and Blau syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

NOD2 NM_022162.2 exon 8 p.Gly908Arg (c.2722G>C):This variant has been reported in the literature in numerous individuals with a variety of phenotypes, most often in the context of immunological related presentations such as Crohn's disease or Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD) (Hugot 2001 PMID:11385576, Cuthbert 2002 PMID:11910337, Bonen 2003 PMID:12512038, Kabesch 2003 PMID:12704363, Girardelli 2018 PMID:29248579, Hui 2018 PMID:29321258, Gonzalez-Mancera 2020 PMID:32654169). In a large meta analysis study (PMID: 19713276), Individuals carrying this variant had an increased overall risk of Crohn's disease (OR = 2.6, 95% CI 2.2-2.9). However, this variant is present in several control individuals in the literature and is present in 1.4% (997/68018) of European alleles, including 5 homozygotes in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/16-50722629-G-C?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:4692) with classifications ranging from Variant of Uncertain Significance to Likely Benign as well as at least 1 entry as a Risk Allele. Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In vitro functional studies predict that this variant will impact the protein (Bonen 2003 PMID:12512038). However, these studies may not accurately represent in vivo biological function. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain but given the available data, the classification of this variant is likely most appropriate as a risk allele. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 908 of the NOD2 protein (p.Gly908Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs2066845, gnomAD 5%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. Numerous population-based case-control studies have shown that this variant confers an elevated risk of Crohn's disease (PMID: 21548950, 15024686, 18489434, 15190267, 15571588). In a large meta-analysis involving 75 case-control studies with 18,727 cases and 17,102 controls (PMID: 19713276), individuals carrying this variant had an increased overall risk of Crohn's disease (OR = 2.6, 95% CI 2.2-2.9). When all three NOD2 genotypes were combined (p.Arg702Trp, p.Gly908Arg, and p.Leu1007Profs*2), the odds ratios for Crohn's disease were 2.4 (95% CI, 2.0-2.8) for simple heterozygotes, 9.0 (95% CI 6.0-13.5) for compound heterozygotes, and 6.7 (95% CI 4.1-10.9) for homozygotes, compared with noncarriers. This variant is also known as G881R in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4692). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on NOD2 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change results in decreased NFkB activity and decreased response to lipopolysaccharide and peptidoglycan compared to wildtype protein (PMID: 12512038, 15198989). In summary, this is a frequently observed variant that is associated with approximately a 2.6-fold increased risk of Crohn's disease in population studies. Therefore, it has been classified as an Increased Risk Allele. -
