Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease VCEP
The NM_000536.4:c.1352G>C variant in RAG2 is a missense variant predicted to cause the substitution of glycine by alanine at amino acid 451 (p.Gly451Ala). The variant has been identified in at least 8 individuals. Three individuals described by Dr. Jolan were homozygous for this variant (reaching the maximum of 1 pt for homozygous occurrence). One individual with Omenn Syndrome was heterozygous for this variant and a p.R229Q variant, which is classified as pathogenic according to the SCID VCEP specifications. The trans phase was not confirmed (0.5 points, PMID 32655540). One individual with CID was heterozygous for this variant, and p.M459L, a likely pathogenic variant classified by the SCID VCEP. The trans phase was not confirmed (0.25pt, PMID 26457731). Three other individuals were heterozygous for this variant and a VUS (p.I210T, PMID 31334206; p.G32E, PMID 26457731; p.T77N, PMID 18463379, 24331380, 26457731, 29772310). 1.75 points in total, PM3 is met. These three homozygous individuals described by Dr. Jolan are from the same family: 3 affected segregations, LOD score 1.81, PP1_Strong. The filtering allele frequency (the upper threshold of the 95% CI of 9/129174 alleles) of this variant in gnomAD v.2.1.1 is 0.00003418 for European (non-Finnish) chromosomes, which is lower than the ClinGen SCID VCEP threshold (<0.0000588) for PM2_Supporting, and therefore meets this criterion (PM2_Supporting) This variant resides within the PHD domain region, amino acids 414-487, of RAG2, defined as a critical functional domain by the ClinGen SCID VCEP (PM1). In one study (PMID 29772310), a recombination activity assay shows that the relevant activity of the p.G451A variant to wildtype RAG2 is 66.3%, which is higher than the SCID VCEP threshold (<60%) for PS3_supporting. However, in two other studies (PMID 18463379, 24331380), the relevant activity of the variant is shown to be 30% and 27.6%, respectively, which falls in the SCID VCEP threshold (>25% and <60%) for PS3_supporting (PS3_Supporting). Diagnostic criteria for SCID/Leaky SCID/Omenn syndrome met 0.5pts + SCID gene panel or exome/genome sequencing conducted 0.5pts; the total is 1 point, PP4 is met (PMID: 32655540). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for SCID due to recombinase activating gene 2 deficiency. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen SCID-VCEP: PM3, PM2_Supporting, PM1, PS3_Supporting, PP4, and PP1_Strong. (VCEP specifications version 1.0).

PM2_Supporting
The filtering allele frequency (the upper threshold of the 95% CI of 9/129174 alleles) of this variant in gnomAD v.2.1.1 is 0.00003418 for European (non-Finnish) chromosomes, which is lower than the ClinGen SCID VCEP threshold (<0.0000588) for PM2_Supporting, and therefore meets this criterion (PM2_Supporting)
PP4
