The variant of interest was found in controls at an allele frequency of 1/121392, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic HBB variant of 1/89 (0.0111803). The variant of interest has been reported in multiple affected individuals via publications, along with reputable databases/clinical laboratories citing the variant as "pathogenic/likely pathogenic." Therefore, the variant of interest has been classified as Pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV000508493	SCV001592413	pathogenic	not provided	2024-01-21	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala77Valfs*13) in the HBB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in HBB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23637309). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with HBB-related conditions (PMID: 3408672, 26076395). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 15420). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
