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:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The best available variant frequency is uninformative because there are too few occurrences in population data. Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene. Conflicting predictions of the effect on the protein. One other pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant affects the same amino acid. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. -

The Hb Abruzzo variant (HBB: c.431A>G; p.His144Arg, also known as His143Arg when numbered from the mature protein; rs33918338) is reported in the literature in both the homozygous and heterozygous states in multiple individuals affected with erythrocytosis (Mosca 1993, Shrikhande 2016, Venkateswaran 2005, HbVar and references therein). This variant has been observed to segregate with erythrocytosis in at least one family (Venkateswaran 2005), and its occurrence in heterozygous affected individuals suggests it acts in a dominant manner (Mosca 1993, Shrikhande 2016, Venkateswaran 2005, HbVar and references therein). This variant is found only on a single chromosome (1/251362 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The histidine at codon 144 is highly conserved, occurs in the functionally important 2,3-diphosphoglycerate binding site (Wajcman 2005), and functional studies indicate this variant exhibits increased oxygen affinity (Bonaventura 1975, Venkateswaran 2005). Additionally, other amino acid substitutions at this codon (p.His144Gln, p.His144Pro) exhibit increased oxygen affinity and are associated with erythrocytosis (Camps 2016, Jensen 1975, Wajcman 2005). Based on available information, the Hb Abruzzo variant is considered to be pathogenic.
