Genes affected
FASLG (HGNC:11936): (Fas ligand) This gene is a member of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily. The primary function of the encoded transmembrane protein is the induction of apoptosis triggered by binding to FAS. The FAS/FASLG signaling pathway is essential for immune system regulation, including activation-induced cell death (AICD) of T cells and cytotoxic T lymphocyte induced cell death. It has also been implicated in the progression of several cancers. Defects in this gene may be related to some cases of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome type 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 03, 2023This sequence change falls in intron 2 of the FASLG gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the FASLG protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs376383896, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FASLG-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 574003). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
