Although much evidence is not provided, we should put into consideration its relationship with IFN1 levels and the inflammatory state created by that increase auto inflamation
Additive Loss-Of-Function Proteasome Subunit Mutations in CANDLE/PRAAS Patients Promote Type I IFN Production
PMID: 26829627
Here, we identified 8 mutations in 4 proteasome genes, PSMA3 (encodes α7), PSMB4 (encodes β7), PSMB9 (encodes β1i), and proteasome maturation protein (POMP), that have not been previously associated with disease and 1 mutation in PSMB8 that has not been previously reported. One patient was compound heterozygous for PSMB4 mutations, 6 patients from 4 families were heterozygous for a missense mutation in 1 inducible proteasome subunit and a mutation in a constitutive proteasome subunit, and 1 patient was heterozygous for a POMP mutation, thus establishing a digenic and autosomal dominant inheritance pattern of PRAAS. Function evaluation revealed that these mutations variably affect transcription, protein expression, protein folding, proteasome assembly, and, ultimately, proteasome activity. Moreover, defects in proteasome formation and function were recapitulated by siRNA-mediated knockdown of the respective subunits in primary fibroblasts from healthy individuals. Patient-isolated hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells exhibited a strong IFN gene-expression signature, irrespective of genotype. Additionally, chemical proteasome inhibition or progressive depletion of proteasome subunit gene transcription with siRNA induced transcription of type I IFN genes in healthy control cells. Our results provide further insight into CANDLE genetics and link global proteasome dysfunction to increased type I IFN production.Created: 10 Apr 2020, 1:27 p.m. | Last Modified: 10 Apr 2020, 1:27 p.m.

Comment on list classification: Changed from Amber to Red until more info to support gene-disease association. Currently only one case reported in literature. Gene not present on any other PID related panels or within ESID or IUIS classifications.

Comment on list classification: This gene was absent from the original PanelApp PID panel dataset (review April 2018). However it was listed in external expert immunodeficiency diagnostic gene list from Victorian Clinical Genetics Services. In this combined PID panel, this gene has been rated as AMBER and needs further curational review to assess pertinence prior to v1. No disorder or MOI was listed in the submitted list.Created: 26 Jun 2018, 12:45 p.m.
