Genes affected
IL21R (HGNC:6006): (interleukin 21 receptor) The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine receptor for interleukin 21 (IL21). It belongs to the type I cytokine receptors, and has been shown to form a heterodimeric receptor complex with the common gamma-chain, a receptor subunit also shared by the receptors for interleukin 2, 4, 7, 9, and 15. This receptor transduces the growth promoting signal of IL21, and is important for the proliferation and differentiation of T cells, B cells, and natural killer (NK) cells. The ligand binding of this receptor leads to the activation of multiple downstream signaling molecules, including JAK1, JAK3, STAT1, and STAT3. Knockout studies of a similar gene in mouse suggest a role for this gene in regulating immunoglobulin production. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.86).
BP6
Variant 16-27444565-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-27444565-A-G is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 473944.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-5.66 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0108 (1640/152282) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0373 (1549/41534). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0357. There are 46 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 776 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 46 AR gene
