Genes affected

HOXB13 (HGNC:5112): (homeobox B13) This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the homeobox gene family. Genes of this family are highly conserved among vertebrates and essential for vertebrate embryonic development. This gene has been implicated to play a role in fetal skin development and cutaneous regeneration. In mice, a similar gene was shown to exhibit temporal and spatial colinearity in the main body axis of the embryo, but was not expressed in the secondary axes, which suggests functions in body patterning along the axis. This gene and other HOXB genes form a gene cluster at chromosome the 17q21-22 region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.216G>T variant (also known as p.G72G), located in coding exon 1, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 216 of the HOXB13 gene. This nucleotide substitution does not change the amino acid at codon 72. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to create a new alternate splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
