Genes affected
GABRB3 (HGNC:4083): (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit beta3) This gene encodes a member of the ligand-gated ionic channel family. The encoded protein is one the subunits of a multi-subunit chloride channel that serves as the receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid, a major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the mammalian nervous system. This gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 15 in a cluster with two other genes encoding related subunits of the family. This gene may be associated with the pathogenesis of several disorders including Angelman syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, nonsyndromic orofacial clefts, epilepsy and autism. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 03, 2023Variant summary: GABRB3 c.1078C>T (p.Arg360Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the transmembrane domain (IPR006029) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. In addition, this variant disrupts the third to last nucleotide of Exon 8, and therefore can affect splicing. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: four predict the variant weakens a 5' donor site, and one predicts the variant creates a 5' donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251482 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1078C>T in individuals affected with Developmental And Epileptic Encephalopathy, 43 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Epilepsy, childhood absence, susceptibility to, 1;C2677087:Epilepsy, childhood absence, susceptibility to, 5 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 15, 2022This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GABRB3-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs771568810, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 360 of the GABRB3 protein (p.Arg360Trp). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 469571). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). -
