Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PS3_Supporting PP4 PM2_Supporting PS4 PM1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000206.3:c.670C>T variant in IL2RG is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of arginine by tryptophan at amino acid 224 (p.Arg226Trp). The variant has been observed in at least 10 male probands with SCID (PMIDs 28747913, 21184155, 10792291, 9633906, 9058718, 9049783) (PS4). Among these probands, one proband hemizygous for this variant was diagnosed with SCID and presented a T-B+NK- lymphocyte profile (PMID 9049783) (PP4). The variant is absent from gnomAD v4.0 (PM2_Supporting). The variant affects CpG dinucleotides at c.670C, which is defined as a mutational hotspot by the ClinGen SCID VCEP (PMID 7668284) (PM1_Strong). Surface expression of the IL-2 receptor gamma chain in patient B cells showed that the variant causes decreased surface localization of the protein, indicating that this variant impacts protein function (PMID 9058718)(PS3_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for SCID. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen SCID-VCEP: PM1_Strong, PS4, PP4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PS3_Supporting.

Genes affected

IL2RG (HGNC:6010): (interleukin 2 receptor subunit gamma) The protein encoded by this gene is an important signaling component of many interleukin receptors, including those of interleukin -2, -4, -7 and -21, and is thus referred to as the common gamma chain. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (XSCID), as well as X-linked combined immunodeficiency (XCID), a less severe immunodeficiency disorder.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 06, 2023	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 224 of the IL2RG protein (p.Arg224Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (PMID: 9049783, 9058718, 9633906, 10792291, 21184155, 28747913). This variant is also known as c.684C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225194). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt IL2RG protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

This variant has been previously reported as a hemizygous change in patients with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (PMID: 9058718, 9049783), and reported as pathogenic by a clinical laboratory in the ClinVar database. Functional studies using B-cell lines harboring this variant in the hemizygous state from patients with SCID demonstrated that while IL2RG mRNA can be detected, its protein product cannot be detected by immunofluorescence at the cell surface (PMID: 9058718). It is absent from the ExAC and gnomAD population databases and thus is presumed to be rare. The c.670C>T (p.Arg224Trp) variant affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. Based on the available evidence, the c.670C>T (p.Arg224Trp) variant is classified as pathogenic. -
