Genes affected
VPS13B (HGNC:2183): (vacuolar protein sorting 13 homolog B) This gene encodes a potential transmembrane protein that may function in vesicle-mediated transport and sorting of proteins within the cell. This protein may play a role in the development and the function of the eye, hematological system, and central nervous system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Cohen syndrome. Multiple splice variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Cohen syndrome Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 11, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1413*) in the VPS13B gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in VPS13B are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15141358, 16648375, 20461111). This variant is present in population databases (rs765998879, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VPS13B-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371573). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 14, 2022Variant summary: VPS13B c.4238T>A (p.Leu1413X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251332 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4238T>A in individuals affected with Cohen Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: two classified the variant as likely pathogenic and one as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
