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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.979
• PP5: Variant 21-43053920-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr21-43053920-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 124.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr21-43053920-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 539 of the CBS protein (p.Leu539Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs121964968, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of homocystinuria due to CBS deficiency (PMID: 8990018). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 124). 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: 20506325). 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. -

Variant summary: CBS c.1616T>C (p.Leu539Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Cystathionine beta-synthase, C-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250168 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1616T>C has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Homocystinuria (Aral_1997). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (Kozich_2010, Melenovska_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20506325, 25331909, 8990018). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 124). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
