Genes affected
HSPB8 (HGNC:30171): (heat shock protein family B (small) member 8) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the superfamily of small heat-shock proteins containing a conservative alpha-crystallin domain at the C-terminal part of the molecule. The expression of this gene in induced by estrogen in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, and this protein also functions as a chaperone in association with Bag3, a stimulator of macroautophagy. Thus, this gene appears to be involved in regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and carcinogenesis, and mutations in this gene have been associated with different neuromuscular diseases, including Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The HSPB8 p.Met6Thr variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in ClinVar or LOVD 3.0. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs530083542) and in control databases in 3 of 250740 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00001196 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: Other in 1 of 6116 chromosomes (freq: 0.000164) and South Asian in 2 of 30614 chromosomes (freq: 0.000065), but was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European (Finnish) or European (non-Finnish) populations. The p.Met6 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2L Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 22, 2023This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 6 of the HSPB8 protein (p.Met6Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs530083542, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of HSPB8-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1048978). 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 tolerated. 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. -
