Genes affected
HBB (HGNC:4827): (hemoglobin subunit beta) The alpha (HBA) and beta (HBB) loci determine the structure of the 2 types of polypeptide chains in adult hemoglobin, Hb A. The normal adult hemoglobin tetramer consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Mutant beta globin causes sickle cell anemia. Absence of beta chain causes beta-zero-thalassemia. Reduced amounts of detectable beta globin causes beta-plus-thalassemia. The order of the genes in the beta-globin cluster is 5'-epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta -- beta--3'.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 09, 2019Variant summary: HBB c.223G>A (p.Gly75Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Globin domain (IPR000971) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251428 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.223G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals predicted to be carriers for beta-thalassemia (Giambona_2008,2011, Mosca_2008), however, to our knowledge, the variant has not been reported in individuals affected by the disease. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hemoglobinopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJan 10, 2023The HBB c.223G>A (p.Gly75Ser) variant, also known as Hb Kokomo has been reported in individuals with normal hematological indices (PMID: 18603555 (2008)), as well as in individuals predicted to be carriers of beta-thalassemia (PMIDs: 21353607 (2011) and 18486569 (2008)). While the variant is described as having normal stability, heterozygosity for this variant is associated with mild hemolytic anemia and reticulocytosis. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
