Genes affected
DTNBP1 (HGNC:17328): (dystrobrevin binding protein 1) This gene encodes a protein that may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes, platelet dense granules, and lysosomes. A similar protein in mouse is a component of a protein complex termed biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 (BLOC-1), and binds to alpha- and beta-dystrobrevins, which are components of the dystrophin-associated protein complex (DPC). Mutations in this gene are associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 7. This gene may also be associated with schizophrenia. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: DTNBP1 c.1017_1020delAGAG (p.Glu340ProfsX44) causes a frameshift which results in an extension of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 251488 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00052 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Latino control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 3-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in DTNBP1 causing Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome phenotype (0.00016). However, c.1017_1020delAGAG has also been observed in individual(s) affected with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome and/or bleeding disorders due to impaired platelet function (e.g. Downes_2019, Huizing_2020, Pelusi_2022). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31064749, 31898847, 35132767). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 626951). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the DTNBP1 gene (p.Glu340Profs*44). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 12 amino acid(s) of the DTNBP1 protein and extend the protein by 31 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs759180894, gnomAD 0.05%). This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with bleeding disorder and/or Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (PMID: 31064749, 31898847). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
