Genes affected

TUBB2B (HGNC:30829): (tubulin beta 2B class IIb) The protein encoded by this gene is a beta isoform of tubulin, which binds GTP and is a major component of microtubules. This gene is highly similar to TUBB2A and TUBB2C. Defects in this gene are a cause of asymmetric polymicrogyria. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

TUBB2B Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 8 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_178012.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the TUBB2B gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 45 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 5.1195 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.9522 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles, tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria, complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 7, complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations, cerebellar ataxia, intellectual disability, and dysequilibrium.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.768
