Genes affected

VPS13B (HGNC:2183): (vacuolar protein sorting 13 homolog B) This gene encodes a potential transmembrane protein that may function in vesicle-mediated transport and sorting of proteins within the cell. This protein may play a role in the development and the function of the eye, hematological system, and central nervous system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Cohen syndrome. Multiple splice variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.014257128 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.1, offset of 20, new splice context is: agaagaatatgatccttcAGatt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 8-99819410-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr8-99819410-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 56696.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr8-99819410-A-G is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic]. Variant chr8-99819410-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Cohen syndrome (PMID: 15141358). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56696). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 47 of the VPS13B gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in VPS13B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15141358, 16648375, 20461111). -
