Genes affected
LITAF (HGNC:16841): (lipopolysaccharide induced TNF factor) Lipopolysaccharide is a potent stimulator of monocytes and macrophages, causing secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and other inflammatory mediators. This gene encodes lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-alpha factor, which is a DNA-binding protein and can mediate the TNF-alpha expression by direct binding to the promoter region of the TNF-alpha gene. The transcription of this gene is induced by tumor suppressor p53 and has been implicated in the p53-induced apoptotic pathway. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1C (CMT1C) and may be involved in the carcinogenesis of extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 04, 2024Variant summary: LITAF c.479G>A (p.Arg160His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the LPS-induced tumour necrosis factor alpha factor (IPR006629) 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 1.6e-05 in 249474 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.479G>A in individuals affected with Charcot-Marie Disease Type 1C and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1C Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 28, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 160 of the LITAF protein (p.Arg160His). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (Invitae). This missense change has been observed in at least one individual who was not affected with LITAF-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 221090). 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 disruptive. 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. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 27, 2019The p.R160H variant (also known as c.479G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the LITAF gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 479. The arginine at codon 160 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
