Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_000410.4(HFE):c.616+6G>A variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000527 in 1,612,326 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Hereditary hemochromatosis Uncertain:1
This sequence change falls in intron 3 of the HFE gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the HFE protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. This variant is present in population databases (rs202027115, ExAC 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with HFE-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 530398). Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. -
