Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 2P and 10B. PM2BP4_ModerateBP6_Very_Strong
The NM_000518.5(HBB):āc.262A>Cā(p.Thr88Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000607 in 1,613,996 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (ā ā ). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T88I) has been classified as Likely benign.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jun 14, 2022 | Variant summary: HBB c.262A>C (p.Thr88Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 252054 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant is found in 1.8% of the Maltese population (Kutlar_1991) and happens to be in tight linkage disequilibrium with the fetal Hb variant Hb F-Malta-I (HBG2 c.353A>G (p.His118Arg)). The variant has been reported in individuals in compound heterozygosity with a beta-thal causing variant (c.93+6T>C) whose hematological findings were similar to those detected in a simple heterozygous state (thalassemia trait), providing supportive evidence for a benign role (Scerri_1993). At least one publication, Kutlar_1991, reported heat stability experiments on mixtures of equal quantities of Hb A and Hb Valletta and on red cell lysates of two adult Hb Valletta heterozygotes, and showed normal stability. Another ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. - |
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Aug 27, 2018 | The HBB c.262A>C; Thr87Pro variant, also known as Hb Valletta, is reported in the literature, typically in linkage to the Hb F-Malta-I variant, in individuals affected with beta-thalassemia (Perrinello 2008, Scerri 1993) and in healthy individuals (Giambona 2006, Kutlar 1991, HbVar database and references therein). One individual with beta-thalassemia who carried the Thr87Pro variant was also homozygous for a pathogenic HBB variant (Parrinello 2008). Heat stability assays on Thr87Pro variant protein indicate this variant has normal stability (Kutlar 1991). The variant is listed ClinVar (Variation ID: 15489) and is found in the non-Finnish European population on six chromosomes in the Genome Aggregation Database. The threonine at residue 87 is weakly conserved, but computational analyses (SIFT: damaging, PolyPhen-2: benign) predict conflicting effects of this variant on protein structure/function. Based on available information, the variant is considered likely benign.
