Genes affected
RARB (HGNC:9865): (retinoic acid receptor beta) This gene encodes retinoic acid receptor beta, a member of the thyroid-steroid hormone receptor superfamily of nuclear transcriptional regulators. This receptor localizes to the cytoplasm and to subnuclear compartments. It binds retinoic acid, the biologically active form of vitamin A which mediates cellular signalling in embryonic morphogenesis, cell growth and differentiation. It is thought that this protein limits growth of many cell types by regulating gene expression. The gene was first identified in a hepatocellular carcinoma where it flanks a hepatitis B virus integration site. Alternate promoter usage and differential splicing result in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 137 of the RARB protein (p.Arg137Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of RARB-related disorders (PMID: 31816153). This variant is also known as NM_000965.4:c.410G>A (p.Arg144Gln) . ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 541542). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt RARB protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects RARB function (PMID: 31816153). 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. -
