Genes affected
CD8A (HGNC:1706): (CD8 subunit alpha) The CD8 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein found on most cytotoxic T lymphocytes that mediates efficient cell-cell interactions within the immune system. The CD8 antigen acts as a coreceptor with the T-cell receptor on the T lymphocyte to recognize antigens displayed by an antigen presenting cell in the context of class I MHC molecules. The coreceptor functions as either a homodimer composed of two alpha chains or as a heterodimer composed of one alpha and one beta chain. Both alpha and beta chains share significant homology to immunoglobulin variable light chains. This gene encodes the CD8 alpha chain. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The major protein isoforms of this gene differ by the presence or absence of a transmembrane domain and thus differ in being a membrane-anchored or secreted protein. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

Susceptibility to respiratory infections associated with CD8alpha chain mutation Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 13, 2021This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 93 of the CD8A protein (p.Arg93Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs2229240, gnomAD 0.2%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CD8A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 843539). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
