Genes affected
DEFB1 (HGNC:2766): (defensin beta 1) Defensins form a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides made by neutrophils. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence. This gene encodes defensin, beta 1, an antimicrobial peptide implicated in the resistance of epithelial surfaces to microbial colonization. This gene maps in close proximity to defensin family member, defensin, alpha 1 and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 05, 2024The c.131G>A (p.C44Y) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the DEFB1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 131, causing the cysteine (C) at amino acid position 44 to be replaced by a tyrosine (Y). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
