Description
For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the C-terminus of the HMBS protein. Other variant(s) that disrupt this region (p.Gln328Valfs*30, p.Leu329Phefs*30, p.Gly335Alafs*9, and p.Arg355Profs*4) have been observed in individuals with HMBS-related conditions (PMID: 8168829, 9463797, 9702975, 10944860, 19138865). This suggests that this may be a clinically significant region of the protein. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 652166). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with acute intermittent porphyria (PMID: 10782018, 11831862). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln292*) in the HMBS gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 70 amino acid(s) of the HMBS protein.
