Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PS1_Moderate PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000261.2(MYOC):c.1442C>T(p.Pro481Leu) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Likely pathogenicin UniProt. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P481R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

MYOC (HGNC:7610): (myocilin) MYOC encodes the protein myocilin, which is believed to have a role in cytoskeletal function. MYOC is expressed in many occular tissues, including the trabecular meshwork, and was revealed to be the trabecular meshwork glucocorticoid-inducible response protein (TIGR). The trabecular meshwork is a specialized eye tissue essential in regulating intraocular pressure, and mutations in MYOC have been identified as the cause of hereditary juvenile-onset open-angle glaucoma.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 20 ACMG points.

• PS1: Transcript NM_000261.2 (MYOC) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in UniProt
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_000261.2
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrnull-null-null-null is described in UniProt as null.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant 1-171635998-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-171635998-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1686789.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

The c.1442C>T variant in MYOC is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Proline by Leucine at amino acid 481 (p.Pro481Leu). This variant was not found in any population of gnomAD (v2.1.1), meeting the <= 0.0001 threshold set for PM2_Supporting in a population of at least 10,000 alleles. The REVEL score = 0.72, which met the >= 0.7 threshold for PP3, predicting a damaging effect on MYOC function. A previous study (PMID: 16466712) demonstrated that the Pro481Leu protein had reduced secretion levels compared to wild type myocilin protein and met the OddsPath threshold for PS3_Moderate (> 4.3), indicating that this variant did impact protein function. 3 segregations in 1 family, with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma (JOAG or POAG), have been reported (PMID: 12189160), which fulfilled PP1 (3-4 meioses). 2 probands with JOAG or POAG have been reported carrying this variant (PMIDs: 10196380, 12189160), which met PS4_Supporting (>= 2 probands). In summary, this variant met the criteria to receive a score of 6 and to be classified as likely pathogenic (likely pathogenic classification range 6 to 9) for juvenile open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): PS3_Moderate, PP1, PP3, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting -
