Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 4P and 4B. PP3_StrongBS2
The NM_006361.6(HOXB13):c.650G>T(p.Arg217Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000137 in 1,611,456 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R217P) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not provided    Uncertain:2 
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28072499, 19389631, 8756292) -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 217 of the HOXB13 protein (p.Arg217Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs749518336, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HOXB13-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 483510). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt HOXB13 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -
HOXB13-related disorder    Uncertain:1 
The HOXB13 c.650G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg217Leu. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with HOXB13-related disease. This variant is reported in 0.026% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:1 
The p.R217L variant (also known as c.650G>T), located in coding exon 2 of the HOXB13 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 650. The arginine at codon 217 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
