RCV001778654 | SCV002015004 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2023-12-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: HBB c.380T>C (p.Val127Ala), also known as Hb Beirut, results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Globin domain (IPR000971) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251316 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.380T>C has been reported in the literature among carriers with normal hematological parameters and normal findings for affinity to bind oxygen and normal stability as determined by the isopropanol test (e.g., Blibech_1986, Strahler_1983). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hemoglobinopathy. To our knowledge, no quantitative measurements reporting experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function were ascertained. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34272389, 3557996, 26635043, 29790589, 6879181). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories and the OMIM database have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as likely benign, and one laboratory classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. |
