Genes affected
DBH (HGNC:2689): (dopamine beta-hydroxylase) The protein encoded by this gene is an oxidoreductase belonging to the copper type II, ascorbate-dependent monooxygenase family. The encoded protein, expressed in neuroscretory vesicles and chromaffin granules of the adrenal medulla, catalyzes the conversion of dopamine to norepinephrine, which functions as both a hormone and as the main neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system. The enzyme encoded by this gene exists exists in both soluble and membrane-bound forms, depending on the absence or presence, respectively, of a signal peptide. Mutations in this gene cause dopamine beta-hydroxylate deficiency in human patients, characterized by deficits in autonomic and cardiovascular function, including hypotension and ptosis. Polymorphisms in this gene may play a role in a variety of psychiatric disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Submissions by phenotype

Orthostatic hypotension 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 16, 2022This sequence change affects codon 478 of the DBH mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DBH protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 9, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs369903212, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DBH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 529771). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
