Genes affected
HSD3B2 (HGNC:5218): (hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 2) The protein encoded by this gene is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative conversion of delta(5)-ene-3-beta-hydroxy steroid, and the oxidative conversion of ketosteroids. It plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of all classes of hormonal steroids. This gene is predominantly expressed in the adrenals and the gonads. Mutations in this gene are associated with 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, type II, deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

not provided Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 27, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys273Argfs*7) in the HSD3B2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 100 amino acid(s) of the HSD3B2 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs754609778, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency (PMID: 8004103). This variant is also known as 273deltaAA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 586031). This variant disrupts a region of the HSD3B2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg335*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 18252794, 31006099). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 15, 2022Variant summary: HSD3B2 c.818_819delAA (p.Lys273ArgfsX7) results in a premature termination codon, which is predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251282 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.818_819delAA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (e.g. Chang_1995, Simard_1994, Marui_2000, Leka-Emiri_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: both classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
