Genes affected

H3-3B (HGNC:4765): (H3.3 histone B) Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This gene contains introns and its mRNA is polyadenylated, unlike most histone genes. The protein encoded by this gene is a replication-independent histone that is a member of the histone H3 family. Pseudogenes of this gene have been identified on the X chromosome, and on chromosomes 5, 13 and 17. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_addAF=-0.22694).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=3.51 with no splicing effect.

Collection Method: curation

The heterozygous p.Ser147Ter variant in H3F3B was identified by our study in 1 individual with hemiparkinsonism. Trio genome analysis showed this variant to be de novo. The variant has not been previously reported in individuals with hemiparkinsonism and was absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 147. This alteration occurs within the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. It is of note that loss of function of H3F3B in an autosomal dominant disease has not yet been established based on the criteria laid out in Tayoun, 2018 (PMID: 30192042). Finally, although this gene has been reported in association with hemiparkinsonism, it currently has limited evidence for these associations. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited and therefore the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS2, PM2 (Richards 2015). -
