ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000759782 SCV001473499 uncertain significance not provided 2023-09-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The Hb Montgomery variant (HBA2: c.146T>G; p.Leu49Arg, also known as Leu48Arg when numbered from the mature protein, rs41392146, HbVar ID: 69), is reported in the literature in individuals with no associated clinical symptoms, and is considered a stable hemoglobin variant (Molchanova 1994, HbVar and references therein). However, the phenotype of this variant in the presence of other alpha globin variants is unknown. This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 15637), but is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The leucine at codon 49 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.754). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the Hb Montgomery variant is uncertain at this time.
