Genes affected
HMBS (HGNC:4982): (hydroxymethylbilane synthase) This gene encodes a member of the hydroxymethylbilane synthase superfamily. The encoded protein is the third enzyme of the heme biosynthetic pathway and catalyzes the head to tail condensation of four porphobilinogen molecules into the linear hydroxymethylbilane. Mutations in this gene are associated with the autosomal dominant disease acute intermittent porphyria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 09, 2017The R246H variant in the HMBS gene has been reported as a predicted benign variant based on ambiguous in silico predictions and in vitro expression activity (Chen wt al., 2016). The R246H variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The R246H variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which at a position that is not conserved. In silico analysis at GeneDx predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret R246H as a variant of uncertain significance -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 19, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 246 of the HMBS protein (p.Arg246His). This variant is present in population databases (rs201909197, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HMBS-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 452525). 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 not expected to disrupt HMBS protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on HMBS function (PMID: 27539938, 29360981). 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. -
