Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000390326 SCV001362847 pathogenic Sandhoff disease 2024-08-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: HEXB c.1023_1026delTGAG (p.Ser341ArgfsX30) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 251288 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00038 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in HEXB causing Sandhoff Disease (5.2e-05 vs 0.0015), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1023_1026delTGAG in individuals affected with Sandhoff Disease and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280975). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000390326 SCV001394593 pathogenic Sandhoff disease 2024-11-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser341Argfs*30) in the HEXB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in HEXB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 7550345, 18758829). This variant is present in population databases (rs776476415, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HEXB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280975). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
