Description

A Heterozygous Frameshift variant c.51delC in Exon 1 of the HBB gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Lys18fs*2 was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00003% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is high, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score. Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic (Variation ID: 15414).The variant has been previously reported by Neu-Yilik G, et al., 2011. Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines.

Description

The frameshift variant has been reported previously in homozygous and compound heterozygous state in patients affected with beta-thalassemia (Krugluger W. et al., 2002; Yasmeen H. et al., 2016). The p.Lys18ArgfsTer2 variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.003%) in the gnomad and novel in 1000 genome database. It has been submitted to ClinVar as a Pathogenic variant. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Lysine 18, changes this amino acid to Arginine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 2 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Lys18ArgfsTer2. The variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. In the absence of another reportable variant , the molecular diagnosis of recessive thalassemia is not confirmed.
