Genes affected
CBS (HGNC:1550): (cystathionine beta-synthase) The protein encoded by this gene acts as a homotetramer to catalyze the conversion of homocysteine to cystathionine, the first step in the transsulfuration pathway. The encoded protein is allosterically activated by adenosyl-methionine and uses pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Defects in this gene can cause cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency (CBSD), which can lead to homocystinuria. This gene is a major contributor to cellular hydrogen sulfide production. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 01, 2023Variant summary: CBS c.1316G>A (p.Arg439Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the CBS domain (IPR000644) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.3e-05 in 171116 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.1316G>A, has been reported in the literature in at least three individuals affected with Homocystinuria (Tsai_1997, Dawson_1997, Gaustadnes_2002), however two of these patients also carried a pathogenic variant (c.430G>A (p.Glu144Lys)) in cis. Multiple publications reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and although in an early study the variant was found to result in a moderately reduced enzyme activity (~30% of WT) in a bacterial expression system (Dawson_1997)), later studies found activities similar to wild type in bacterial-, yeast- and mammalian systems (Mayfield_2012, Kopecka_2011, Hnizda_2012, Melenovska_2015). Four other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, mostly without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as VUS (n=3) or benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Familial thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 04, 2023The p.R439Q variant (also known as c.1316G>A), located in coding exon 12 of the CBS gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1316. The arginine at codon 439 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in cis with an additional alteration in CBS in individuals with homocystinuria (Dawson PA et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 1997;5:15-21; Tsai MY et al. Mol Diagn, 1997 Jun;2:129-133; Gaustadnes M et al. Hum Mutat, 2002 Aug;20:117-26). In vitro assays showed this alteration may not impact protein function (Dawson PA et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 1997;5:15-21; Mayfield JA et al. Genetics, 2012 Apr;190:1309-23). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
HYPERHOMOCYSTEINEMIA, THROMBOTIC, CBS-RELATED Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 26, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 439 of the CBS protein (p.Arg439Gln). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with homocystinuria, co-occuring in cis with another likely pathogenic variant (p.Glu144Lys). This variant also co-occurs in trans with other pathogenic variants in individuals with homocystinuria (PMID: 9156316, 10462600, 12124992). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189088). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect CBS function (PMID: 9156316, 20490928, 20506325, 22069143, 22267502). 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. -
