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'.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Nov 20, 2023	The Hb Austin variant (HBB: c.123G>T; p.Arg41Ser, also known as Arg40Ser when numbered from the mature protein, rs33918778, HbVar ID: 311) is reported in the literature in the heterozygous state in multiple individuals of Mexican ancestry with no clinical symptoms (HbVar and references therein, Racsa 2014, Moo-Penn 1977). However, the phenotype of this variant in the presence of other alpha globin variants is unknown. Functional characterization indicate that the variant hemoglobin has normal Bohr effect, increased oxygen affinity, reduced cooperativity, and found to dissociate into oxyHb dimers (HbVar and references therein). The c.123G>T variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 439134). It is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.9). Due to the limited information regarding this variant, its clinical significance is uncertain at this time.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Apr 24, 2024	The HBB c.123G>T (p.Arg41Ser) variant (also known as Hb Austin) has been reported in the published literature to have normal stability and increased oxygen affinity, and individuals heterozygous for this variant have a normal clinical presentation (HbVar (http://globin.cse.psu.edu/cgi-bin/hbvar/counter) and PMID: 24878022 (2014)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
