Genes affected
CBS (HGNC:1550): (cystathionine beta-synthase) The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homotetramer to catalyze the conversion of homocysteine to cystathionine, the first step in the transsulfuration pathway. The encoded protein is allosterically activated by adenosyl-methionine and uses pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Defects in this gene can cause cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (CBSD), which can lead to homocystinuria. This gene is a major contributor to cellular hydrogen sulfide production. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNeuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM-The missense c.502G>A (p.Val168Met) variant in CBS gene has been reported in individuals with Homocystinuria cystathionine beta synthase (CBS) deficiency (Hua N et al. 2021; Kaadan MI et al. 2018). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CBS function (Mayfield JA et al. 2012). The p.Val168Met variant has allele frequency 0.001% in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Uncertain significance / Pathogenic / Likely Pathogenic (multiple submiters). The amino acid change p.Val168Met in CBS is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Val at position 168 is changed to a Met changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Functional studies are required to prove the pathogenicity for the variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

HYPERHOMOCYSTEINEMIA, THROMBOTIC, CBS-RELATED Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 168 of the CBS protein (p.Val168Met). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with homocystinuria due to cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (PMID: 8528202, 33985475; Invitae). 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: 127). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CBS protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CBS function (PMID: 8528202, 10531322, 20066033, 22267502). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Homocystinuria Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 09, 2024Variant summary: CBS c.502G>A (p.Val168Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Pyridoxal-phosphate dependent enzyme domain (IPR001926) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.1e-05 in 186900 control chromosomes. c.502G>A has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype in CBS cell lines, in presumed compound heterozygosity in an individual with Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection and as a confirmed compound heterozygous genotype in an individual presenting with Recurrent dislocation of binocular crystal lenses and cystathionine beta synthase deficiency (example, Kruger_1995, Kaadan_2018, Hua_2021). At least two publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (example, Kabil_1999, Singh_2010). The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal cystathionine beta synthase activity in vitro. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33985475, 29650765, 10531322, 8528202, 22267502, 20066033). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 22, 2019The p.V168M pathogenic mutation (also known as c.502G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the CBS gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 502. The valine at codon 168 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was first reported as detected in cell lines from an individual with inferred clinical phenotype of homozygous CBS enzyme deficiency; however, clinical details were not provided, this variant was detected in the heterozygous state, and the potential of sample and clinical information misclassification was suggested (Kruger WD et al. Hum Mol Genet. 1995;4:1155-61). This variant was also detected in an individual from a coronary artery dissection cohort who had a second CBS variant (phase unknown), no typical disease features, and normal serum homocysteine levels (Kaadan MI et al. Circ Genom Precis Med. 2018;11:e001933). Studies have indicated that this variant results in reduced protein and enzyme activity in yeast assays (Kabil O et al. J Biol Chem. 1999;274:31256-60; Shan X et al. Hum Mol Genet. 2001;10:635-43; Singh LR et al. PLoS Genet. 2010;6:e1000807; Mayfield JA et al. Genetics. 2012;190:1309-23). 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. -
