Genes affected
ALB (HGNC:399): (albumin) This gene encodes the most abundant protein in human blood. This protein functions in the regulation of blood plasma colloid osmotic pressure and acts as a carrier protein for a wide range of endogenous molecules including hormones, fatty acids, and metabolites, as well as exogenous drugs. Additionally, this protein exhibits an esterase-like activity with broad substrate specificity. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein. A peptide derived from this protein, EPI-X4, is an endogenous inhibitor of the CXCR4 chemokine receptor. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 29, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 156319). This variant is also known as Kayseri and 2430_2431del. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with analbuminemia (PMID: 12028999, 18459107). This variant is present in population databases (rs75152012, gnomAD 0.02%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val78Cysfs*2) in the ALB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in ALB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12028999). -
