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'.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJul 20, 2022The HBB c.2T>C (p.Met1Thr) variant (also known as Initiation Codon T>C) disrupts in the translation initiation codon of the HBB mRNA and is predicted to interfere with HBB protein synthesis. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The variant is associated with beta-zero thalassemia (PMIDs: 25849334 (2015), 25806420 (2015), 12368169 (2002), 9101288 (1997)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 24, 2023The HBB c.2T>C; p.Met1? variant (also known as Initiation codon ATG>ACG; rs33941849, HbVar ID: 776) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with beta-thalassemia or beta-thalassemia trait (Jankovic 1990, Molchanova 1998, Muniz 2000, Najmabadi 2002, HbVar database). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical translation initiation codon and is predicted to result in an aberrant or absent protein. Taken together, this variant is considered pathogenic.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 12, 2021Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with HBB-related conditions (PMID: 2272840, 9163586, 25849334, 29379553). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the HBB protein in which other variant(s) (p.Glu7Lys) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 20301551, 23297836, 26372199, 27117572). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 36310). This variant is also known as CD1 (ATG-ACG). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the HBB mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 56. -
