Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000329.3:c.1056G>A variant is a synonymous variant in codon 352 of RPE65, and is present in gnomAD v.2.1.1 at a GrpMax allele frequency of 0.3944, with 8033 alleles / 19884 total alleles in the East Asian population with 1627 homozygotes, which is higher than the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.008 (BA1). The variant does not have a strong prediction of impact at splicing sites according to SpliceAI, which calculates a delta score of 0.12 for splice acceptor gain. Because this score is higher than the ClinGen LCA / eoRD VCEP BP4 / BP7 threshold of <0.1 and lower than the PP3 threshold of >0.2, no in silico predictive codes are met. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for RPE65-related recessive retinopathy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen LCA/eoRD VCEP: BA1. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 09/21/2023). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA285811/MONDO:0100368/120

Genes affected
RPE65 (HGNC:10294): (retinoid isomerohydrolase RPE65) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the vitamin A visual cycle of the retina which supplies the 11-cis retinal chromophore of the photoreceptors opsin visual pigments. It is a member of the carotenoid cleavage oxygenase superfamily. All members of this superfamily are non-heme iron oxygenases with a seven-bladed propeller fold and oxidatively cleave carotenoid carbon:carbon double bonds. However, the protein encoded by this gene has acquired a divergent function that involves the concerted O-alkyl ester cleavage of its all-trans retinyl ester substrate and all-trans to 11-cis double bond isomerization of the retinyl moiety. As such, it performs the essential enzymatic isomerization step in the synthesis of 11-cis retinal. Mutations in this gene are associated with early-onset severe blinding disorders such as Leber congenital. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2017]

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

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

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
