Variant summary: HEXA c.-2523T>C is located in the untranscribed region upstream of the HEXA gene region. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0018 in 31382 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0063 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 4.51 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in HEXA causing Tay-Sachs Disease phenotype (0.0014), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.-2523T>C in individuals affected with Tay-Sachs Disease and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No 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 benign. -
