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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genome-Nilou Lab	Jul 22, 2021	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Dec 13, 2023	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg146*) in the VPS13B gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in VPS13B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15141358, 16648375, 20461111). This variant is present in population databases (rs144539572, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Cohen syndrome (PMID: 20656880, 23188044). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 370440). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Feb 21, 2021	Variant summary: VPS13B c.436C>T (p.Arg146X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. At-least one truncation downstream of this position has been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251172 control chromosomes. c.436C>T has been reported in the literature in at-least two individuals affected with Cohen Syndrome, one of whom as a critically ill infant, underwent extensive clinical and diagnostic workup by whole genome sequencing (example, El Chehadeh_2010, Duplomb_2019, Wang_2020). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic citing overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
