Genes affected
TUBB2B (HGNC:30829): (tubulin beta 2B class IIb) The protein encoded by this gene is a beta isoform of tubulin, which binds GTP and is a major component of microtubules. This gene is highly similar to TUBB2A and TUBB2C. Defects in this gene are a cause of asymmetric polymicrogyria. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

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. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 448845). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TUBB2B-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs767477213, gnomAD 0.006%). This sequence change falls in intron 1 of the TUBB2B gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the TUBB2B protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. -
