Genes affected
SEC23B (HGNC:10702): (SEC23 homolog B, COPII coat complex component) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the SEC23 subfamily of the SEC23/SEC24 family, which is involved in vesicle trafficking. The encoded protein has similarity to yeast Sec23p component of COPII. COPII is the coat protein complex responsible for vesicle budding from the ER. The function of this gene product has been implicated in cargo selection and concentration. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified in this gene.

The SEC23B c.325G>A (p.Glu109Lys) variant has been reported in at least three studies and is found in a total of 25 individuals including 23 in a homozygous state and two in a compound heterozygous state with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (Schwarz et al. 2009; Bianchi et al. 2009; Punzo et al. 2011; Amir et al. 2011). The p.Glu109Lys variant is described as a founder mutation among the Israeli Moroccan Jewish population (Amir et al. 2011). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.000577 in the African population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Expression analysis in HeLa-Kyoto cells determined the p.Glu109Lys variant had less than 5% of wildtype expression (Schwarz et al. 2009). Based on the evidence, the p.Glu109Lys variant is classified as pathogenic for congenital dyserythropoietic anemia. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

The NM_006363.6(SEC23B): c.325G>A (p.Glu109Lys) missense variant replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 109 of the SEC23B protein (p.Glu109Lys). This variant (rs121918221) is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA) type II (PMID: 19561605, 19621418, 20015893, 21252497, 21850656, 25044164). This variant is reported as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (VCV.version: VCV000001222.65). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918221, gnomAD 0.04%). We found this variant in compound heterozygosity or homozygosity in 4 individuals affected by CDA type II: Case60-Patient114 (Family 1); Case82U-patient159U (Family 3); Case00388-P-00210 (Family 6); Case00429-P-00249 (Family 8). All these cases are published in paper PMID: 37373084 where functional studies for this variant and other variants were done. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for CDA type II based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PM2strong, PP5strong, PS3strong, PP3supporting. -

Variant summary: SEC23B c.325G>A (p.Glu109Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change to a well-conserved residue (HGMD) in 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 0.00023 in 251456 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. c.325G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia, type II (Schwarz_2009, Russo_2011), and at least one was reported as compound heterozygous with a (likely) pathogenic variant. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein stability, finding less than 5% of protein detectable compared to wild-type SEC23B. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19561605, 21850656). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

(I) 0106 - This gene is known to be associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from a glutamic acid to a lysine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (v2: 59 heterozygotes, 1 homozygote). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools and is very highly conserved with a minor amino acid change. (SP) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0705 - No comparable missense variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0801 - Strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has previously been reported as compound heterozygous or homozygous in multiple individuals with congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia and classified as pathogenic by clinical diagnostic laboratories (ClinVar; PMIDs: 21252497, 32641076, 34093240).

The SEC23B c.325G>A; p.Glu109Lys variant (rs121918221) is reported in the literature in both homozygous and compound heterozygous states in individuals with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia, type II (Amir 2011, Iolascon 2010, Russo 2018, Russo 2011, Schwarz 2009, Wright 2019). This particular SEC23B variant is considered a founder mutation in both Italian and Moroccan-Jewish populations (Amir 2011, Russo 2011). Functional studies demonstrate that this variant results in reduced SEC23B expression and protein mislocalization (Schwarz 2009, Wei 2022). This variant is reported as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 1222). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.02% (61/282848 alleles, including one homozygote) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.948). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Amir A et al.

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 109 of the SEC23B protein (p.Glu109Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918221, gnomAD 0.04%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This missense change has been observed in individuals with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type II (PMID: 19561605, 19621418, 20015893, 21252497, 21850656, 25044164). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1222). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SEC23B protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SEC23B function (PMID: 19561605). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
