Genes affected

HP (HGNC:5141): (haptoglobin) This gene encodes a preproprotein, which is processed to yield both alpha and beta chains, which subsequently combine as a tetramer to produce haptoglobin. Haptoglobin functions to bind free plasma hemoglobin, which allows degradative enzymes to gain access to the hemoglobin, while at the same time preventing loss of iron through the kidneys and protecting the kidneys from damage by hemoglobin. Mutations in this gene and/or its regulatory regions cause ahaptoglobinemia or hypohaptoglobinemia. This gene has also been linked to diabetic nephropathy, the incidence of coronary artery disease in type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease, inflammatory disease behavior, primary sclerosing cholangitis, susceptibility to idiopathic Parkinson's disease, and a reduced incidence of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. The protein encoded also exhibits antimicrobial activity against bacteria. A similar duplicated gene is located next to this gene on chromosome 16. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

TXNL4B (HGNC:26041): (thioredoxin like 4B) Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
• BP6: Variant 16-72060107-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-72060107-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 3052875.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome at 2 AR gene
