Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 0P and 3B. BS3_SupportingBP4BP7

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.612G>A variant in MYOC is a synonymous variant (p.Thr204=). The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the South Asian population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.0001960 (6 alleles out of 30,616), which did not meet the PM2_Supporting allele frequency threshold (≤ 0.0001) or the BS1 allele frequency threshold (≥ 0.001). This variant was not predicted to affect splicing, as assessed with SpliceAI (≤ 0.2), with a CADD score (v1.6) = 0.145 which met the ≤ 10 threshold for BP4, and the GERP score = -5.55 (threshold < 0), indicating a lack of conservation at this site (BP7). This evidence suggests that the variant does not impact MYOC function. A previous study (PMID:35196929) demonstrated that the Thr204= protein had similar solubility and secretion levels to wild type myocilin protein and met the OddsPath threshold for BS3_Supporting (< 0.48), indicating that this variant did not impact protein function.This variant was identified in laboratory based testing, but has not yet been found in a proband with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma. Additionally, as PM2_Supporting was not met, PS4 did not apply. In summary, this variant met the criteria to receive a score of -3 and to be classified as likely benign (likely benign classification range -2 to -6) for primary open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): BP4, BP7, BS3_Supporting LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA1244213/MONDO:0007665/019

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.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Review Status:reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method:curation

The c.612G>A variant in MYOC is a synonymous variant (p.Thr204=). The highest minor allele frequency of this variant was in the South Asian population of gnomAD (v2.1.1) = 0.0001960 (6 alleles out of 30,616), which did not meet the PM2_Supporting allele frequency threshold (<= 0.0001) or the BS1 allele frequency threshold (>= 0.001). This variant was not predicted to affect splicing, as assessed with SpliceAI (<= 0.2), with a CADD score (v1.6) = 0.145 which met the <= 10 threshold for BP4, and the GERP score = -5.55 (threshold < 0), indicating a lack of conservation at this site (BP7). This evidence suggests that the variant does not impact MYOC function. A previous study (PMID: 35196929) demonstrated that the Thr204= protein had similar solubility and secretion levels to wild type myocilin protein and met the OddsPath threshold for BS3_Supporting (< 0.48), indicating that this variant did not impact protein function.This variant was identified in laboratory based testing, but has not yet been found in a proband with juvenile or primary open angle glaucoma. Additionally, as PM2_Supporting was not met, PS4 did not apply. In summary, this variant met the criteria to receive a score of -3 and to be classified as likely benign (likely benign classification range -2 to -6) for primary open angle glaucoma based on the ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Glaucoma VCEP (v1, 12 Oct 2021): BP4, BP7, BS3_Supporting -
