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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 17 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_000814.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), GABRB3. . Gene score misZ 3.3856 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.4544 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with childhood absence epilepsy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 43, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, epilepsy, childhood absence, susceptibility to, 5.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.987
• PP5: Variant 15-26621417-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-26621417-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 254261.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr15-26621417-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GABRB3 function (PMID: 26950270). 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 GABRB3 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 254261). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (PMID: 23934111). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 120 of the GABRB3 protein (p.Asp120Asn). -
