Genes affected
CBS (HGNC:1550): (cystathionine beta-synthase) The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homotetramer to catalyze the conversion of homocysteine to cystathionine, the first step in the transsulfuration pathway. The encoded protein is allosterically activated by adenosyl-methionine and uses pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Defects in this gene can cause cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (CBSD), which can lead to homocystinuria. This gene is a major contributor to cellular hydrogen sulfide production. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 336 of the CBS protein (p.Arg336Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CBS-related conditions. 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 CBS protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg336 amino acid residue in CBS. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9870207, 16429402, 22267502, 23974653, 25218699). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: CBS c.1007G>T (p.Arg336Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The frequency data for this variant in gnomAD is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1007G>T in individuals affected with Homocystinuria and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. However, different variants affecting the same codon have been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.1006C>T, p.Arg336Cys and c.1007G>A, p.Arg336His), supporting the critical relevance of codon 336 to CBS protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2908236). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
