Genes affected

HBB (HGNC:4827): (hemoglobin subunit beta) The alpha (HBA) and beta (HBB) loci determine the structure of the 2 types of polypeptide chains in adult hemoglobin, Hb A. The normal adult hemoglobin tetramer consists of two alpha chains and two beta chains. Mutant beta globin causes sickle cell anemia. Absence of beta chain causes beta-zero-thalassemia. Reduced amounts of detectable beta globin causes beta-plus-thalassemia. The order of the genes in the beta-globin cluster is 5'-epsilon -- gamma-G -- gamma-A -- delta -- beta--3'.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most 50 bp of the penultimate exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 254 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-5226777-TC-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-5226777-TC-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2681976.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr11-5226777-TC-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The HBB c.114del (p.Trp38*) variant (also known as CD 37 -G) causes the premature termination of HBB protein synthesis. This variant is associated with beta(0)-thalassemia (PMID: 9668567 (1998)). The same p.Trp38* premature termination caused by a different variant, c.114G>A, is also associated with beta(0)-thalassemia. Based on the available information, the c.114del (p.Trp38*) variant is classified as pathogenic. -
