Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_000518.5(HBB):c.190C>T(p.His64Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H64R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: HBB c.190C>T (p.His64Tyr) results in a conservative amino acid change located in a heme binding site (InterPro) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251426 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant (also known as Hb M-Saskatoon) is widely regarded as causing hemoglobin M (HbM) disease, and has been reported in the literature in several affected individuals (e.g. Efremov_1974, Waye_1994, Suryantoro_1995, Kedar_2005, Brunner-Agten_2010, Garcia-Morin_2019). The disorder was observed to be inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, often occurring as a de novo mutation. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The HBB c.190C>T (p.His64Tyr) variant (also known as Hb M Saskatoon and H63Y) has been reported in the published literature in individuals/families affected with autosomal dominant methemoglobinemia (PMIDs: 34789072 (2021), 4841979 (1974), 13897827 (1961), 20324533 (1950)) and has been observed to occur de novo (PMIDs: 19727720 (2010), 15929117 (2005), 7713749 (1994)). Functional studies have reported that this variant shows increased oxygen affinity, increased auto-oxidation, and reduced stability (PMIDs: 15929117 (2005), 4086306 (1985), 7372598 (1980), 6248489 (1980), 4301455 (1968), 5851873 (1965)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Based on the available information, this variant is associated with autosomal dominant methemoglobinemia, however, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant as it relates to the severity of beta thalassemia when a pathogenic variant occurs in trans. Testing affected family members could help clarify the clinical significance of this variant. Genetic counseling is recommended. -
The Hb M-Saskatoon variant (HBB: c.190C>T; p.His64Tyr, also known as His63Tyr when numbered from the mature protein, rs33922873, HbVar ID: 359) is reported in the literature in several individuals with hemoglobin M (HbM) disease (Arbane-Dahmane 1985, Bouatrous 2021, Brunner-Agten 2010, Gottgens 2021, Suryantoro 1995, Waye 1994). HbM disease is an autosomal dominantly inherited congenital form of methemoglobinemia, and pathogenic variants often occur de novo (Bouatrous 2021, Brunner-Agten 2010, Waye 1994). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 15256). It is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.942). Based on available information, the Hb M-Saskatoon variant is considered to be pathogenic for HbM disease.
