Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Strong

The NM_000814.6(GABRB3):​c.506C>T​(p.Pro169Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. P169P) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

GABRB3 (HGNC:4083): (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit beta3) This gene encodes a member of the ligand-gated ionic channel family. The encoded protein is one the subunits of a multi-subunit chloride channel that serves as the receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid, a major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the mammalian nervous system. This gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 15 in a cluster with two other genes encoding related subunits of the family. This gene may be associated with the pathogenesis of several disorders including Angelman syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, nonsyndromic orofacial clefts, epilepsy and autism. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_000814.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), GABRB3. . Gene score misZ 3.3856 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.4544 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with childhood absence epilepsy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 43, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, epilepsy, childhood absence, susceptibility to, 5.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.994

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 169 of the GABRB3 protein (p.Pro169Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GABRB3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 537288). 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 GABRB3 protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
