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'.

The c.[316-12T>C; 316-7C>A] complex variant is reported in the literature in multiple individuals as a very mild beta + thalassemia trait (Belisario 2015, Waye 2013), and has been found in trans with Hb S and Hb C in patients with clinical symptoms (Cross 2007, Belisario 2015, Waye 2013). The c.316-12T>C variant (rs755236703) is only observed on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database. The c.316-7C>A variant (rs34483965) is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database. These are intronic variants in weakly conserved nucleotides, and computational analyses (Alamut v.2.11) predict that each variant may impact splicing by weakening the nearby canonical acceptor splice site, however, without mRNA analysis it is unclear how the combination of the two variants impact splicing. Based on available information, the c.[316-12T>C; 316-7C>A] complex variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Belisario A et al.

Variant summary: HBB c.316-7C>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251142 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.316-7C>A (legacy name IVS-II-844C>A) in isolation has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype with the HbS variant in at-least one individual with features of Sickle liver disease (Cross_2007) and as a complex allele in cis with c.316-12T>C (legacy name IVS-II-839T>C) in individuals affected with mild Beta Thalassemia (example, Waye_2013, Belisario_2013). As the possibility of incomplete genotyping in the earlier report (Cross_2007) cannot be entirely excluded, these data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26041423, 31589614, 17565724, 23651435). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551906). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The HBB c.316-7C>A variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual carrying Hb S with very mild clinical presentation (PMID: 17565724 (2007)). It is commonly found as a complex allele with the HBB c.316-12T>C variant, and the (c.316-12T>C; c.316-7C>A) complex allele is reported as being associated with mild beta(+)-thalassemia when it occurs in trans with Hb S or Hb C (PMID: 26041423 (2015), 23651435 (2013)).The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251142 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on HBB mRNA splicing yielded inconclusive findings (Alamut Visual (http://www.interactive-biosoftware.com/)). Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551906). This variant is also known as IVS2-844C>A. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with HBB-related conditions (PMID: 17565724, 23651435, 26041423). In some individuals, it has been found in cis (on the same chromosome) with c.316-12T>C. In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change falls in intron 2 of the HBB gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the HBB protein. -
