Genes affected
STXBP2 (HGNC:11445): (syntaxin binding protein 2) This gene encodes a member of the STXBP/unc-18/SEC1 family. The encoded protein is involved in intracellular trafficking, control of SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) complex assembly, and the release of cytotoxic granules by natural killer cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 541 of the STXBP2 protein (p.Gly541Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs61736587, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 (PMID: 20558610, 20798128, 20823128). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 30219). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt STXBP2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects STXBP2 function (PMID: 20798128, 24194549). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionMay 22, 2022The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.023%). Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 20798128). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.97; 3Cnet: 0.96). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000030219). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 06, 2023Published functional studies demonstrate the variant disrupts association of the protein with syntaxin 11, and functional assays show defective degranulation and cellular cytotoxicity (Cetica et al., 2010); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20823128, 26320718, 23687090, 24194549, 32542393, 31589614, 35020838, 33162974, 20798128) -

STXBP2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 09, 2023The STXBP2 c.1621G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly541Ser. This variant was reported in the homozygous state in a patient with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHL) who lacked variants in the PRF1, UNC13D, and STX11 genes (Cetica et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20798128). It has also been reported along with a second STXBP2 variant in other patients with FHL (Meeths et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20558610; Rohr et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20823128). Functional data in Cetica et al. suggest the p.Gly541Ser substitution affects binding of the STXBP2 protein to its effectors. This variant is reported in 0.047% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/19-7712322-G-A). It has been interpreted as pathogenic by multiple submitters to ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/30219). Taken together, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 27, 2023Variant summary: STXBP2 c.1621G>A (p.Gly541Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00023 in 248156 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in STXBP2 causing Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (0.00023 vs 0.0022), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1621G>A has been reported in the literature as biallelic homozygous or compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (example, Cetica_2010, Pagel_2012). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Cetica_2012). The most pronounced variant effect results in a defective protein and by defective cytotoxicity by T lymphocytes. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
