NM_000071.3:c.670C>T
Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 4P and 4B. PM5PP3_ModerateBS2
The NM_000071.3(CBS):c.670C>T(p.Arg224Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000244 in 1,270,450 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 10 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R224H) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Variant summary: CBS c.670C>T (p.Arg224Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Tryptophan synthase beta chain-like, PALP domain (IPR001926) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 251364 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CBS causing Homocystinuria (0.00021 vs 0.003), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.670C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Neurodevelopmental Disorders (Popp_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Homocystinuria. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29158550). Eight ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014, and all submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1
The p.R224C variant (also known as c.670C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the CBS gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 670. The arginine at codon 224 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
HYPERHOMOCYSTEINEMIA, THROMBOTIC, CBS-RELATED Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 224 of the CBS protein (p.Arg224Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs139456571, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CBS-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 212851). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
