Genes affected
CIITA (HGNC:7067): (class II major histocompatibility complex transactivator) This gene encodes a protein with an acidic transcriptional activation domain, 4 LRRs (leucine-rich repeats) and a GTP binding domain. The protein is located in the nucleus and acts as a positive regulator of class II major histocompatibility complex gene transcription, and is referred to as the "master control factor" for the expression of these genes. The protein also binds GTP and uses GTP binding to facilitate its own transport into the nucleus. Once in the nucleus it does not bind DNA but rather uses an intrinsic acetyltransferase (AT) activity to act in a coactivator-like fashion. Mutations in this gene have been associated with bare lymphocyte syndrome type II (also known as hereditary MHC class II deficiency or HLA class II-deficient combined immunodeficiency), increased susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and possibly myocardial infarction. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013]

MHC class II deficiency Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingNatera, Inc.Sep 11, 2020- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 01, 2021This sequence change replaces threonine with asparagine at codon 165 of the CIITA protein (p.Thr165Asn). The threonine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between threonine and asparagine. This variant is present in population databases (rs34648899, ExAC 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CIITA-related conditions. 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 tolerated. 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. -
