Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp184*) in the UNC13D gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in UNC13D are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14622600). This variant is present in population databases (rs754292065, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (PMID: 21755595, 24470399, 25573973). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 940988). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

The c.551G>A;p.Trp184* variant creates a premature translational stop signal in the UNC13D gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product - PVS1. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Clinvar ID: 40988) - PS4_supporting. The variant is present at low allele frequencies population databases (rs754292065 – gnomAD 0.0001068%; ABraOM no frequency - https://abraom.ib.usp.br/) - PM2_supporting. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic.
