Genes affected
TF (HGNC:11740): (transferrin) This gene encodes a glycoprotein with an approximate molecular weight of 76.5 kDa. It is thought to have been created as a result of an ancient gene duplication event that led to generation of homologous C and N-terminal domains each of which binds one ion of ferric iron. The function of this protein is to transport iron from the intestine, reticuloendothelial system, and liver parenchymal cells to all proliferating cells in the body. This protein may also have a physiologic role as granulocyte/pollen-binding protein (GPBP) involved in the removal of certain organic matter and allergens from serum. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -

Variant summary: TF c.2012G>A (p.Gly671Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Transferrin-like domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0025 in 251236 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2.24 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in TF causing Atransferrinemia phenotype (0.0011), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.2012G>A has been reported in the literature, without strong evidence for causality. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Atransferrinemia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Two submitters classified the variant as likely benign while one classified as pathogneic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
