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'.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 07, 2024Variant summary: HBB c.122G>A (p.Arg41Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Globin domain (IPR000971) of the encoded protein sequence. Three 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 251398 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.122G>A has been reported in the literature as Hb-Athens-Georgia/Hb-Waco and has been associated with normal hematological parameters, a normal heme-heme interaction, normal Bohr effect, normal/reduced heme-heme interaction and increased oxygen affinity (example, Brown_1976, Moo-Penn_1977, Mrad_1989). It has recently been reported in a family with HbH disease resulting from alpha thalassemia deletions where the impact of this beta globin variant was not significant and a family member had normal hematological parameters with the authors concluding that this variant is non-pathological (example, Panyasai_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hemoglobinopathy. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 14597, 8114, 2757008, 33287582). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 15099). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
