RCV002222353 | SCV002500547 | pathogenic | Dominant beta-thalassemia | 2022-03-21 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: HBB c.3G>A alters the initiation codon (therefore the predicted protein level name is p.Met1Ile) and is expected to result either in absence of the protein or truncation of the encoded protein due to translation initiation at a downstream codon. The variant was absent in 251128 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.3G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals in the heterozygous state, who had hematologic findings characteristic for Beta Thalassemia Minor (Saba_1991, Landin_1995, Vetter_1997), in addition, one of the reported heterozygous individuals had child(ren) with transfusion-dependent thalassemia (Hussain_2017). These data indicate that the variant in homozygosity and/or compound heterozygosity with a severe variant, is likely to cause the BTHAL MJR phenotype. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Other variants affecting the initiation codon (e.g. c.1A>G, c.2T>G, c.2T>C) have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. Three submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. |
