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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.82).
• BP6: Variant 16-10902809-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-10902809-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 317684.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=1, Uncertain_significance=1, Benign=1}. Variant chr16-10902809-C-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_benign].
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000118 (18/152246) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.00155 (8/5178). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000768. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 12 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck.

Benign, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Natera, Inc.	Sep 16, 2020	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 13, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
