Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong

The NM_006086.4(TUBB3):​c.904G>A​(p.Ala302Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,632 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002318870: Functional assays showed that the variant had moderate level of impact on gene/protein function (PMID:20074521)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A302V) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected
TUBB3 (HGNC:20772): (tubulin beta 3 class III) This gene encodes a class III member of the beta tubulin protein family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. This protein is primarily expressed in neurons and may be involved in neurogenesis and axon guidance and maintenance. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type 3. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV002318870: Functional assays showed that the variant had moderate level of impact on gene/protein function (PMID: 20074521).; SCV000329906: "In vitro functional studies of A302T-TUBB3 showed disrupted tubulin heterdimer formation and altered microtubule dynamics compared to wild-type TUBB3 (Tischfield et al., 2010)."; SCV003443673: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TUBB3 function (PMID: 20074521, 29382549, 31226147).
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 3 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_006086.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-89935356-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 30275.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the TUBB3 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 45 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 6 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.5786 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 5.665 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to fibrosis of extraocular muscles, congenital, 3A, with or without extraocular involvement, complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 1, tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria, congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles, TUBB3-related tubulinopathy.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.921
PP5
Variant 16-89935355-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-89935355-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 6964.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
