Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2PP3_Moderate

The NM_000190.4(HMBS):​c.163G>T​(p.Ala55Ser) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000124 in 1,611,690 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. 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. A55G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
HMBS (HGNC:4982): (hydroxymethylbilane synthase) This gene encodes a member of the hydroxymethylbilane synthase superfamily. The encoded protein is the third enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway and catalyzes the head to tail condensation of four porphobilinogen molecules into the linear hydroxymethylbilane. Mutations in this gene are associated with the autosomal dominant disease acute intermittent porphyria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 22, 2023Variant summary: HMBS c.163G>T (p.Ala55Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Porphobilinogen deaminase, N-terminal domain (IPR022417) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251494 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.163G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Acute Intermittent Porphyria (e.g. Gu_1994, Puy_1997). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Acute Intermittent Porphyria. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8270254, 9199558). One ClinVar submitter has assessed the variant since 2014: the variant was classified as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
