Systematically testing human HMBS missense variants to reveal mechanism and pathogenic variation
2023-02-06
Abstract excerpt
Defects in hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS) can cause Acute Intermittent Porphyria (AIP), an acute neurological disease. Although sequencing-based diagnosis can be definitive, ~⅓ of clinical HMBS variants are missense variants, and most clinically-reported HMBS missense variants are designated as “variants of uncertain significance” (VUS). Using saturation mutagenesis, en masse selection, and sequencing, we ap...
