Description
This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 234 of the CBS protein (p.Asp234Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs773734233, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with homocystinuria (PMID: 14972327, 16786517; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 212852). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CBS protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CBS function (PMID: 22267502, 23981774). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
