Genes affected
TUBB2B (HGNC:30829): (tubulin beta 2B class IIb) The protein encoded by this gene is a beta isoform of tubulin, which binds GTP and is a major component of microtubules. This gene is highly similar to TUBB2A and TUBB2C. Defects in this gene are a cause of asymmetric polymicrogyria. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the TUBB2B gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 45 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 5.1195 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.9522 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to tubulinopathy-associated dysgyria, congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles, cerebellar ataxia, intellectual disability, and dysequilibrium, complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 7, complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.991
PP5
Variant 6-3225797-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-3225797-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 212497.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=2, Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1}.

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 212497). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 98 of the TUBB2B protein (p.Gly98Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cortical malformations (PMID: 23361065, 24860126). 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 TUBB2B 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. -
