Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PVS1 PS3 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000518.5(HBB):​c.364G>T​(p.Glu122*) variant causes a stop gained change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,810 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002548063: The variant segregated with the phenotype in a dominant manner, and the presence of inclusion bodies was also noted in several cases. In at least one of these reported individuals the variant likely occurred as a de novo event (Kazazian 1986). A publication reported the presence of a truncated protein product from a patient, however the amount of the truncated protein was very low, suggesting that this beta-globin variant is highly unstable and is mostly degraded soon after translation, although the presence of the truncated protein product, might also explain the presence of the frequently reported Heinz bodies (Adams_1990).".

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'.

ENSG00000298932 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 46 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV002548063: The variant segregated with the phenotype in a dominant manner, and the presence of inclusion bodies was also noted in several cases. In at least one of these reported individuals the variant likely occurred as a de novo event (Kazazian 1986). A publication reported the presence of a truncated protein product from a patient, however the amount of the truncated protein was very low, suggesting that this beta-globin variant is highly unstable and is mostly degraded soon after translation, although the presence of the truncated protein product, might also explain the presence of the frequently reported Heinz bodies (Adams_1990).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-5225678-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-5225678-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 15404.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
