Genes affected
IL12B (HGNC:5970): (interleukin 12B) This gene encodes a subunit of interleukin 12, a cytokine that acts on T and natural killer cells, and has a broad array of biological activities. Interleukin 12 is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of the 40 kD cytokine receptor like subunit encoded by this gene, and a 35 kD subunit encoded by IL12A. This cytokine is expressed by activated macrophages that serve as an essential inducer of Th1 cells development. This cytokine has been found to be important for sustaining a sufficient number of memory/effector Th1 cells to mediate long-term protection to an intracellular pathogen. Overexpression of this gene was observed in the central nervous system of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), suggesting a role of this cytokine in the pathogenesis of the disease. The promoter polymorphism of this gene has been reported to be associated with the severity of atopic and non-atopic asthma in children. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Apr 28, 2017
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

IL12B NM_002187.2 exon 3 p.Glu95Lys (c.283G>A): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.5% (131/24968) of African alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/5-158750143-C-T?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:541841). This variant amino acid Lysine (Lys) is present in >15 species including mammals and is not well conserved among evolutionarily distant species; this suggests that this variant may not impact the protein. Additional computational prediction tools do not suggest an impact. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
