Genes affected
HSPB1 (HGNC:5246): (heat shock protein family B (small) member 1) This gene encodes a member of the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family of proteins. In response to environmental stress, the encoded protein translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus and functions as a molecular chaperone that promotes the correct folding of other proteins. This protein plays an important role in the differentiation of a wide variety of cell types. Expression of this gene is correlated with poor clinical outcome in multiple human cancers, and the encoded protein may promote cancer cell proliferation and metastasis, while protecting cancer cells from apoptosis. Mutations in this gene have been identified in human patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and distal hereditary motor neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 77 of the HSPB1 protein (p.Leu77Phe). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HSPB1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465268). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on HSPB1 protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.L77F variant (also known as c.229C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the HSPB1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 229. The leucine at codon 77 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
