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, LabCorpMar 10, 2023Variant summary: HBB c.68A>C (p.Glu23Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.4e-05 in 676170 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publications). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in HBB causing Hemoglobinopathy (8.4e-05 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.68A>C has been reported in the literature in healthy Native American, East Asian, Turkish, Egyptian, and Sri Lankan individuals in the heterozygous or homozygous state, suggesting that the variant is benign (e.g. Schneider_1964, Ohba_1978, Cao_1987, Li_1990, Hergersberg_2008, HbVar database). It has also been found to co-occur in cis and in trans with pathogenic beta-thalassemia variants (e.g. c.93-21G>A, IVS-1-1, G>A, and IVS-I-5) in patients, however in these cases it was believed to have little to no clinical impact (e.g. Hergersberg_2008, Koseler_2013, Perera_2015) . These data indicate that the variant is unlikely to be associated with disease. Additionally, a functional study has shown the variant to have normal oxygen equilibrium characteristics, and heat denaturation and isopropanol tests on hemolysates did not reveal instability of the hemoglobin, suggesting that the variant has a neutral effect on protein function (Ohba_1978). Six submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as benign (n=1)/likely benign (n=2), VUS (n=1), pathogenic (n=1) or other (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
