Gene: STAT2https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.23.056838v1. Mice and hamster studies show that STAT2 drives severe lung injury on the one hand, yet restricts systemic virus dissemination on the other.Created: 28 Apr 2020, 2:59 p.m. | Last Modified: 28 Apr 2020, 2:59 p.m.

Comment on list classification: In OMIM STAT2 is associated with Immunodeficiency 44 (616636). Hambleton et al. (2013) (PMID: 23391734) reports 5 affected members of a consanguineous kindred with a homozygous splice site mutation in the STAT2 gene. Patient fibroblasts displayed a severe defect in their ability to respond to IFN-α which was rescued after transduction with wildtype STAT2. Shahni et al. (2015) (PMID:26122121) documents 2 siblings with IMD44 and a homozygous nonsense mutation in the STAT2 gene which segregated with the disorder in the family. In addition, Moens et al (2017) (PMID: 28087227) report 2 siblings with compound heterozygous STAT2 mutations who suffered from severe viral illnesses since infancy. Patient 2 fibroblasts showed an demonstrated absence of expression of STAT2 protein after stimulation with IFN-α. Rating as green as there are 3 independent cases of plausible disease-causing mutations plus functional evidence that the mutations cause the phenotype.Created: 1 May 2018, 9:30 p.m.

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(s)
GOSH or GRID. In this combined PID panel, this gene has been rated as AMBER and needs further curational review to assess pertinence prior to v1.Created: 19 Apr 2018, 2:21 p.m.
