Genes affected
CRYAB (HGNC:2389): (crystallin alpha B) Mammalian lens crystallins are divided into alpha, beta, and gamma families. Alpha crystallins are composed of two gene products: alpha-A and alpha-B, for acidic and basic, respectively. Alpha crystallins can be induced by heat shock and are members of the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family. They act as molecular chaperones although they do not renature proteins and release them in the fashion of a true chaperone; instead they hold them in large soluble aggregates. These heterogeneous aggregates consist of 30-40 subunits; the alpha-A and alpha-B subunits have a 3:1 ratio, respectively. Two additional functions of alpha crystallins are an autokinase activity and participation in the intracellular architecture. The encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions. Alpha-A and alpha-B gene products are differentially expressed; alpha-A is preferentially restricted to the lens and alpha-B is expressed widely in many tissues and organs. Elevated expression of alpha-B crystallin occurs in many neurological diseases; a missense mutation cosegregated in a family with a desmin-related myopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2019]

Submissions by phenotype

Dilated cardiomyopathy 1II Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 30, 2023This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal dominant CRYAB-related conditions (Invitae). This variant is present in population databases (rs782206421, gnomAD 0.01%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 123 of the CRYAB protein (p.Arg123Gln). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228541). 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. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineNov 24, 2015The p.Arg123Gln variant in CRYAB has not been previously reported in individuals with cardiomyopathy, but has been identified in 1/16496 South Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). Com putational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong supp ort for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significan ce of the p.Arg123Gln variant is uncertain. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 18, 2022The p.R123Q variant (also known as c.368G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the CRYAB gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 368. The arginine at codon 123 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
