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'.

Variant summary: HBB c.151A>T (p.Thr51Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Globin domain (IPR000971) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251426 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.151A>T has been reported in the literature in a hematologically asymptomatic individual (Kleinert_2008) and among the abnormal hemoglobin variants identified in a thalassemia screening cohort study (example, Zhang_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hemoglobinopathy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One internal specimen analyzed at our laboratory carried this variant in addition to two other pathogenic HBB variants (c.316-197C>T, and c.79G>A, HbE), however, the phase of this variant was not analyzed. This finding is suggestive of an unlikely association with disease. No other 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 VUS-possibly benign. -
