Genes affected
TREX1 (HGNC:12269): (three prime repair exonuclease 1) This gene encodes a nuclear protein with 3' exonuclease activity. The encoded protein may play a role in DNA repair and serve as a proofreading function for DNA polymerase. Mutations in this gene result in Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome, chilblain lupus, Cree encephalitis, and other diseases of the immune system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012]
ATRIP (HGNC:33499): (ATR interacting protein) This gene encodes an essential component of the DNA damage checkpoint. The encoded protein binds to single-stranded DNA coated with replication protein A. The protein also interacts with the ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3 related protein kinase, resulting in its accumulation at intranuclear foci induced by DNA damage. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]

Variant summary: TREX1 c.797A>G (p.Glu266Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0017 in 251436 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0029 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TREX1 causing Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome 1-AR (0.0017 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.797A>G has been reported in the literature in two unspecified individuals without primary infomration (Dineiro_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome 1-AR. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32483926). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 96242). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

The E266G variant has not been published in association with Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome. However, the E266G variant has been published in association with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (Namjou et al., 2011; Lee-Kirsch et al., 2007). Namjou et al., reports identifying the E266G variant in 5 patients of African decent diagnosed with SLE but not in ethnically matched controls (Namjou et al., 2011). This variant was also identified identified in members of the cohort of European decent but also within ethnically matched controls (Namjou et al., 2011). The NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project reports E266G was observed in 33/8600 (0.38%) alleles from individuals of European background, and the 1000 Genomes Project Consortium reports E266G was observed in 1/978 (0.1%) alleles from individuals of South Asian background. The E266G variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved. In silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
