Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 1P and 6B. PP5BP4BS1_SupportingBS2

The NM_000410.4(HFE):​c.187C>G​(p.His63Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.132 in 1,613,898 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 15,277 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity,other (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. H63H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
HFE (HGNC:4886): (homeostatic iron regulator) The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane protein that is similar to MHC class I-type proteins and associates with beta2-microglobulin (beta2M). It is thought that this protein functions to regulate iron absorption by regulating the interaction of the transferrin receptor with transferrin. The iron storage disorder, hereditary haemochromatosis, is a recessive genetic disorder that results from defects in this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]
H2BC4 (HGNC:4757): (H2B clustered histone 4) Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. The protein has antibacterial and antifungal antimicrobial activity. The main transcript variant of this gene is intronless and encodes a replication-dependent histone that is a member of the histone H2B family. This transcript variant lacks a polyA tail but instead contains a palindromic termination element. This gene is found in the large histone gene cluster on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2020]
HFE-AS1 (HGNC:55168): (HFE antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

PP5
Variant 6-26090951-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-26090951-C-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity|other. ClinVar VariationId is 10.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0015847087). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.102 (15444/152144) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.15 (10219/67976). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.148. There are 1005 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 7371 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 1005 AR gene
