Variant summary: HBB c.315+1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 276896 control chromosomes. c.315+1G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Beta Thalassemia. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. 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.315+1G>T variant (also known as IVS-II-1 (G>T)) disrupts a canonical splice-donor site and interferes with normal HBB mRNA splicing. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000066 (1/152150 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with beta-thalassemia (PMID: 3828533 (1987), PMID: 20524821 (2010)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. Genetic counseling and testing of at-risk relatives are recommended. -
The HBB c.315+1G>T variant (rs33945777), also known as IVS II-1 (G>T), is reported in the literature in individuals affected with beta(0) thalassemia (see HbVar, Broquere 2010, Chehab 1987). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 619686). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical splice donor site of intron 2, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.
