Genes affected

TUBB3 (HGNC:20772): (tubulin beta 3 class III) This gene encodes a class III member of the beta tubulin protein family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. This protein is primarily expressed in neurons and may be involved in neurogenesis and axon guidance and maintenance. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type 3. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, TUBB3
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.939

Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); The majority of missense variants in this gene are considered pathogenic (Stenson et al., 2014); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
