Genes affected

HOXB13 (HGNC:5112): (homeobox B13) This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the homeobox gene family. Genes of this family are highly conserved among vertebrates and essential for vertebrate embryonic development. This gene has been implicated to play a role in fetal skin development and cutaneous regeneration. In mice, a similar gene was shown to exhibit temporal and spatial colinearity in the main body axis of the embryo, but was not expressed in the secondary axes, which suggests functions in body patterning along the axis. This gene and other HOXB genes form a gene cluster at chromosome the 17q21-22 region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Oct 23, 2020	In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with a personal history of prostate cancer in published literature (Akbari 2012); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22781434, 28272408) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 21, 2024	This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 47 of the HOXB13 protein (p.Asn47Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs748333323, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with prostate cancer (PMID: 22781434). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 483487). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The serine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -

The HOXB13 c.140A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asn47Ser. This variant was reported in an individual with prostate cancer (Akbari et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22781434). This variant is reported in 0.0063% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/483487/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

The p.N47S variant (also known as c.140A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the HOXB13 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 140. The asparagine at codon 47 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/1843 individuals with prostate cancer and was not detected in 2225 controls (Akbari MR et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst., 2012 Aug;104:1260-2). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
