Genes affected
UNC13D (HGNC:23147): (unc-13 homolog D) This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the UNC13 family, containing similar domain structure as other family members but lacking an N-terminal phorbol ester-binding C1 domain present in other Munc13 proteins. The protein appears to play a role in vesicle maturation during exocytosis and is involved in regulation of cytolytic granules secretion. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 3, a genetically heterogeneous, rare autosomal recessive disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

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

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 616 of the UNC13D protein (p.Glu616Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (PMID: 16825436, 21248318, 29312353). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 445606). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis Pathogenic:1

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

Variant summary: UNC13D c.1847A>G (p.Glu616Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Munc13 homology 1 domain (IPR014770) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant also alters a conserved nucleotide located in the exonic-splice region two nucleotides from the end of exon 20. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes the canonical 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing of exon 20, with causing a deletion of nine amino acids, which remained in frame (Santoro_2006). The variant was absent in 244878 control chromosomes. c.1847A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (example, Santoro_2006, Sieni_2011, Shibata_2017, Giardino_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
