Genes affected

TUBB4A (HGNC:20774): (tubulin beta 4A class IVa) This gene encodes a member of the beta tubulin family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. Mutations in this gene cause hypomyelinating leukodystrophy-6 and autosomal dominant torsion dystonia-4. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.92).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0000546 (8/146548) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000407 (6/14760). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000177. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 2 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 30. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd at 8 AD gene.

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
