Submissions by phenotype
not provided Pathogenic:3
RNA studies demonstrate a damaging effect: shortened protein length (PMID: 22753090); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on splicing; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33029437, 22753090, 26505894, 31589614, 31343487, 31463586, 29907094, 31240160) -
This sequence change falls in intron 16 of the VPS33B gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the VPS33B protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs398122407, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with VPS33B-related conditions (PMID: 22753090, 26505894, 29907094, 31343487). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 88858). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

VPS33B-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The VPS33B c.1225+5G>C variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant has been reported to be pathogenic for a mild arthrogryposis-renal dysfunction-cholestasis (ARC) phenotype (Smith et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22753090; Rosales et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29907094). A functional study showed that this splicing variant results in a truncated protein with partially reduced activity (Smith et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22753090). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. This variant has been classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/88858). Given all the evidence, we interpret c.1225+5G>C as pathogenic. -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.1225+5G>C intronic alteration results from a G to C substitution 5 nucleotides after coding exon 16 of the VPS33B gene. Based on data from gnomAD, the C allele has an overall frequency of 0.002% (5/251450) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.012% (4/34590) of Latino alleles. This variant has been identified in conjunction with other VPS33B variants in individuals reported to have an attenuated clinical presentation including developmental delay, sensorineural hearing loss, renal dysfunction, nephrotic syndrome, knee contractures, rocker bottom feet, cholestasis, mild arthrogryposis, and other clinical features consistent with VPS33B-related arthrogryposis, renal dysfunction, and cholestasis syndrome; in at least one instance, the variants were identified in trans (Smith, 2012; Weyand, 2016; Rosales, 2018; Agawu, 2019; Duong, 2020). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
