Genes affected
HSPB8 (HGNC:30171): (heat shock protein family B (small) member 8) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the superfamily of small heat-shock proteins containing a conservative alpha-crystallin domain at the C-terminal part of the molecule. The expression of this gene in induced by estrogen in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, and this protein also functions as a chaperone in association with Bag3, a stimulator of macroautophagy. Thus, this gene appears to be involved in regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and carcinogenesis, and mutations in this gene have been associated with different neuromuscular diseases, including Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 03, 2022The p.R55H variant (also known as c.164G>A), located in coding exon 1 of the HSPB8 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 164. The arginine at codon 55 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2L Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 22, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 55 of the HSPB8 protein (p.Arg55His). This variant is present in population databases (rs752911264, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HSPB8-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 570529). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
