Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_017890.5(VPS13B):c.5878T>G(p.Ser1960Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000874 in 1,614,120 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S1960S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Reported previously in an individual with intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, dysmorphic features, and abnormal brain MRI who also had a second variant in the VPS13B gene. However, the individual also harbored a variant in the EHTM1 gene, and the authors attributed the clinical phenotype to the EHTM1 variant (PMID: 28057753); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 37160720, 28057753) -

Variant summary: VPS13B c.5878T>G (p.Ser1960Ala) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 251162 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in VPS13B causing Cohen Syndrome (0.00012 vs 0.0025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.5878T>G in individuals affected with Cohen Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (likely benign n=1, VUS n=4). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Inborn genetic diseases Benign:1
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
VPS13B-related disorder Benign:1
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -
