Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2PP5_Moderate
The NM_000518.5(HBB):c.263C>T(p.Thr88Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000212 in 1,461,864 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely benign in UniProt.

The Hb Quebec-Chori variant (HBB: c.263C>T; p.Thr88Ile, also known as Thr87Ile when numbered from the mature protein, rs33993568, HbVar ID: 418) is not associated with clinical manifestations in heterozygous carriers but has been reported in trans to Hb S in multiple individuals with sickle cell disease (Goode 2020, Segal 2005, Tubman 2007, Witkowska 1991, HbVar database and references therein). The p.Thr88Ile variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.004% (4/113,718 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Functional analyses suggest Hb Quebec-Chori exhibits normal oxygenation in isolation; however, the combination of Hb Quebec-Chori and Hb S is associated with increased sickling in hypoxic conditions compared to heterozygous Hb S alone (Witkowska 1991). Based on available information, the Hb Quebec-Chori variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Link to HbVar database: https://globin.bx.psu.edu/hbvar/menu.html Goode E et al.
