Genes affected
CYB5R3 (HGNC:2873): (cytochrome b5 reductase 3) This gene encodes cytochrome b5 reductase, which includes a membrane-bound form in somatic cells (anchored in the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondrial and other membranes) and a soluble form in erythrocytes. The membrane-bound form exists mainly on the cytoplasmic side of the endoplasmic reticulum and functions in desaturation and elongation of fatty acids, in cholesterol biosynthesis, and in drug metabolism. The erythrocyte form is located in a soluble fraction of circulating erythrocytes and is involved in methemoglobin reduction. The membrane-bound form has both membrane-binding and catalytic domains, while the soluble form has only the catalytic domain. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Mutations in this gene cause methemoglobinemias. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.09161148 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5.3, offset of 5, new splice context is: cttctctctcccccgggaAGttc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 22-42627690-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr22-42627690-T-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 245.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr22-42627690-T-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 16, 2018This variant has been observed in individuals affected with recessive congenital methemoglobinemia (RCM) type II (PMID: 15921385, 9266404). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 245). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CYB5R3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18318771). Experimental studies have shown that this intronic change causes aberrant splicing of the CYB5R3 mRNA (PMID: 9266404). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 5 of the CYB5R3 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
