Genes affected

DEFB1 (HGNC:2766): (defensin beta 1) Defensins form a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides made by neutrophils. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence. This gene encodes defensin, beta 1, an antimicrobial peptide implicated in the resistance of epithelial surfaces to microbial colonization. This gene maps in close proximity to defensin family member, defensin, alpha 1 and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

GS1-24F4.2 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-1.04).
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (AMR) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.23 is higher than 0.05.
