Description

This variant disrupts in the translation initiation codon of the HBB mRNA and is predicted to interfere with HBB protein synthesis. It has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is associated with beta-zero-thalassemia and is known to be a common Chinese beta-thalassemia pathogenic variant (PMID: 2306523 (1990), 27829298 (2016), 34474730 (2021), 34293487 (2021)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Description

The HBB c.2T>G; p.Met1? variant (rs33941849) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with beta(0) thalassemia (HbVar database), with no detectable expression of the beta globin protein in a patient possessing a beta(0) thalassemia variant on the other chromosome (Lam 1990). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 15434), and is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant ablates the canonical translation initiation codon, and is predicted to lead to an aberrant or absent protein. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

Description

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the HBB mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 56. Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal recessive beta thalassemia (PMID: 12955718, 14715623, 29695942). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant beta thalassemia (PMID: 8144357); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the HBB protein in which other variant(s) (p.Glu7Lys) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 20301551, 23297836, 26372199, 27117572). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 15434). This variant is also known as CD0T>G, Initiation codon ATG‚ÜíAGG.
