Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 1P and 0B. PP2
The NM_000071.3(CBS):c.1551G>C(p.Gln517His) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q517Q) has been classified as Likely benign.
CBS (HGNC:1550): (cystathionine beta-synthase) The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homotetramer to catalyze the conversion of homocysteine to cystathionine, the first step in the transsulfuration pathway. The encoded protein is allosterically activated by adenosyl-methionine and uses pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Defects in this gene can cause cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (CBSD), which can lead to homocystinuria. This gene is a major contributor to cellular hydrogen sulfide production. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 107 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 4 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.8318 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: NaN (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to classic homocystinuria.
