Genes affected

TUBA8 (HGNC:12410): (tubulin alpha 8) This gene encodes a member of the alpha tubulin protein family. Alpha tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. Mutations in this gene are associated with polymicrogyria and optic nerve hypoplasia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Athena Diagnostics	Oct 12, 2016	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jun 28, 2022	The c.1117C>T (p.R373W) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the TUBA8 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1117, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 373 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 373 of the TUBA8 protein (p.Arg373Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs773537011, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TUBA8-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 448843). 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 TUBA8 protein function. 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. -
