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'.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.4, offset of -47, new splice context is: tgaGTgagc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 11-5226575-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-5226575-A-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 439146.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr11-5226575-A-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Variant summary: HBB c.315+2T>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251166 control chromosomes. c.315+2T>G has been reported in the literature in a compound heterozygous patient affected with sickle-cell beta-thalassemia (Rizo-de-la-Torre_2017). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28603845). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 439146). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
