Abstract
Mutations in the TNFRSF1A gene encoding the TNF cell surface receptor, TNFR1, cause TNFR-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) and polymorphisms in TNFRSF1A, including rs4149570, rs767455 and rs1800692, are associated with inflammatory diseases.
Highlights
Mutations in the TNFRSF1A gene encoding the TNF cell surface receptor, TNFR1, cause TNFR-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) and polymorphisms in TNFRSF1A, including rs4149570, rs767455 and rs1800692, are associated with inflammatory diseases
We describe a novel exon 2-spliced transcript, named TNFR1-d2, and the impact of these 3 SNPs on exon 2 splicing, transcriptional activity of TNFRSF1A and TRAPS phenotype
Our study provides a novel mechanism of TNFRSF1A regulation whereby three polymorphisms in the promoter, exon 1 and intron 4 have a functional and combined effect on exon 2 splicing, via a coupling mechanism between transcription and splicing
