Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points: 0P and 6B. BP4_StrongBP6BS2_Supporting

The NM_004183.4(BEST1):​c.992G>A​(p.Arg331Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000409 in 1,613,310 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 12/17 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R331W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
BEST1 (HGNC:12703): (bestrophin 1) This gene encodes a member of the bestrophin gene family. This small gene family is characterized by proteins with a highly conserved N-terminus with four to six transmembrane domains. Bestrophins may form chloride ion channels or may regulate voltage-gated L-type calcium-ion channels. Bestrophins are generally believed to form calcium-activated chloride-ion channels in epithelial cells but they have also been shown to be highly permeable to bicarbonate ion transport in retinal tissue. Mutations in this gene are responsible for juvenile-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (VMD2), also known as Best macular dystrophy, in addition to adult-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD) and other retinopathies. Alternative splicing results in multiple variants encoding distinct isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
FTH1 (HGNC:3976): (ferritin heavy chain 1) This gene encodes the heavy subunit of ferritin, the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains. Variation in ferritin subunit composition may affect the rates of iron uptake and release in different tissues. A major function of ferritin is the storage of iron in a soluble and nontoxic state. Defects in ferritin proteins are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases. This gene has multiple pseudogenes. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.019331515).
BP6
Variant 11-61959935-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr11-61959935-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 940070.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=1, Uncertain_significance=2}.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 18 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

BEST1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJul 11, 2023The BEST1 c.992G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg331Gln. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.081% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-61727407-G-A) which is likely too common to be an unreported disease-causing variant. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
