Gene: LILRB1PMID:29528338. Davidson et al., 2018 tested whether LILRB1 genotype influences HCMV susceptibility by analysing LILRB1 genotypes (5 SNPs) in a group of 67 Canadian transplant patients. There was no association between LILRB1 SNPs and virus replication within the entire STCS population, but when the analyses were restricted to kidney transplant recipients, a significant association of rs10423364 was found with HCMV infection.Created: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m.

PMID:32321755. Yu et al., 2020 studied a polymorphic 3-kb region within LILRB1 intron 1 that binds the transcription factor YY1 to regulate LILRB1 levels.Created: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m.

PMID:30461037. Cadena-Mota et al., 2018 show that cytomegalovirus infection has a major effect on LILRB1 expression in NK and other mononuclear cells, and polymorphisms in the LILRB1 regulatory region appear to have a modulatory influence over this effect.Created: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m.

Comment on list classification: HIVEP1 was identified through an OMIM search for potential viral susceptibility genes. Based on initial triage by Illumina (Tier 5 grouping) and additional curation, added to panel as Amber. PMID:29528338 study investigates LILRB1 genotype and viral susceptibility and finds an association within transplant patients (but not within the population as a whole).Created: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 21 May 2020, 3:27 p.m.

Notes from Julie Taylor and Alison Coffey (Illumina): Leukocyte Ig-like receptors (LIRs) are a family of immunoreceptors expressed predominantly on monocytes and B cells and at lower levels on dendritic cells and natural killer (NK) cells.Created: 21 May 2020, 3:26 p.m. | Last Modified: 21 May 2020, 3:26 p.m.
