Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_001083116.3(PRF1):c.666C>A(p.His222Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000316 in 1,613,424 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H222R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: cells expressing the H222Q variant had no detectable cytotoxic activity (PMID: 15755897, 19487666); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17525286, 23592409, 15755897, 19487666, 15205266, 34308104, 36706356, 19595804, 17873118, 32542393, 14757862, 16278825) -

Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: PRF1 c.666C>A (p.His222Gln) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Membrane attack complex component/perforin (MACPF) domain (IPR020864) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 249592 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.666C>A has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis and the variant segregated with the disease (examples: Karandikar_2007 and Vermeulen_2009, Voskoboinik_2005, Chia_2009). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Functional studies showed this variant results in normal expression of perforin but no detectable cytotoxic activity in transfected cells (Voskoboinik_2005, Chia_2009). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 2 Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 222 of the PRF1 protein (p.His222Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs751247865, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (PMID: 14757862, 15205266, 16278825, 17525286, 19595804). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280112). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on PRF1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects PRF1 function (PMID: 15755897, 17525286, 19487666). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
