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
