Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM2 PP2 PP3_Strong

The NM_005419.4(STAT2):​c.737G>T​(p.Cys246Phe) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C246S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

• Frequency: Genomes: not found (cov: 31)
• Consequence: STAT2 NM_005419.4 missense
• Clinical Significance: Not reported in ClinVar
• Conservation: PhyloP100: 3.22

Genes affected

STAT2 (HGNC:11363): (signal transducer and activator of transcription 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the STAT protein family. In response to cytokines and growth factors, STAT family members are phosphorylated by the receptor associated kinases, and then form homo- or heterodimers that translocate to the cell nucleus where they act as transcription activators. In response to interferon (IFN), this protein forms a complex with STAT1 and IFN regulatory factor family protein p48 (ISGF3G), in which this protein acts as a transactivator, but lacks the ability to bind DNA directly. The protein mediates innate antiviral activity. Mutations in this gene result in Immunodeficiency 44. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), STAT2. . Gene score misZ 2.5952 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 3.6431 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with primary immunodeficiency with post-measles-mumps-rubella vaccine viral infection, pseudo-TORCH syndrome 3.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.958
