Genes affected

HBB (HGNC:4827): (hemoglobin subunit beta) The alpha (HBA) and beta (HBB) loci determine the structure of the 2 types of polypeptide chains in adult hemoglobin, Hb A. The normal adult hemoglobin tetramer consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Mutant beta globin causes sickle cell anemia. Absence of beta chain causes beta-zero-thalassemia. Reduced amounts of detectable beta globin causes beta-plus-thalassemia. The order of the genes in the beta-globin cluster is 5'-epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta -- beta--3'.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: HBB c.*112A>T is located in the untranslated mRNA region downstream of the termination codon. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.6e-06 in 150974 control chromosomes (gnomAD v3.1.2). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.*112A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Beta Thalassemia (Giordano_2005, Henderson_2015). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The HBB c.*112A>T variant occurs in the mRNA poly A signal hexamer (AATAAA>AATATA) and can affect beta globin (HBB) expression. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with beta thalassemia who also carried another deleterious beta globin variant (PMIDs: 15820953 (2005) and 26635043 (2016)). It was also detected in a pregnant woman with non-thalassemic hematological results and a marginal HbA2 result (PMID: 15820953 (2005)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000066 (1/152202 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
