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]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 12, 2022The c.71T>G (p.F24C) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the DEFB1 gene. This alteration results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 71, causing the phenylalanine (F) at amino acid position 24 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
