Genes affected
VPS13B (HGNC:2183): (vacuolar protein sorting 13 homolog B) This gene encodes a potential transmembrane protein that may function in vesicle-mediated transport and sorting of proteins within the cell. This protein may play a role in the development and the function of the eye, hematological system, and central nervous system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Cohen syndrome. Multiple splice variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

VPS13B NM_017890 exon 22 p.Met1039Thr (c.3116T>C): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.4% (98/24028) African alleles, including 1 homozygote in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs140015545). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.

Jul 27, 2021
Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the VPS13B gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.3116T>C, in exon 22 that results in an amino acid change, p.Met1039Thr. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with VPS13B-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.039% (dbSNP rs140015545). The p.Met1039Thr change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the VPS13B protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Met1039Thr substitution. Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Met1039Thr change remains unknown at this time. Homozygous and compound heterozygous mutations in VPS13B have been identified in patients with Cohen syndrome [MIM#216550], characterized by ID, postnatal microcephaly, facial dysmorphism, pigmentary retinopathy, myopia and intermittent neutropenia.

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

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
