Genes affected

HBB (HGNC:4827): (hemoglobin subunit beta) The alpha (HBA) and beta (HBB) loci determine the structure of the 2 types of polypeptide chains in adult hemoglobin, Hb A. The normal adult hemoglobin tetramer consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Mutant beta globin causes sickle cell anemia. Absence of beta chain causes beta-zero-thalassemia. Reduced amounts of detectable beta globin causes beta-plus-thalassemia. The order of the genes in the beta-globin cluster is 5'-epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta -- beta--3'.

ENSG00000298932 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 277 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-5226957-T-TC is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-5226957-T-TC is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 551389.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: HBB c.64dupG (p.Asp22GlyfsX2) 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. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251278 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.64dupG has been reported in the literature in an individual reported as a Beta Thalassemia carrier (Oppenheim_1993). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Beta Thalassemia.Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
