Genes affected
MEFV (HGNC:6998): (MEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin) This gene encodes a protein, also known as pyrin or marenostrin, that is an important modulator of innate immunity. Mutations in this gene are associated with Mediterranean fever, a hereditary periodic fever syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458001). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MEFV-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs753946287, gnomAD 0.005%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly777Alafs*4) in the MEFV gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 5 amino acid(s) of the MEFV protein. -
