Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000376.3(VDR):c.218G>A(p.Arg73Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000149 in 1,613,838 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R73R) has been classified as Likely benign.

The R73Q variant in the VDR gene has been reported previously, in the homozygous state, in two Haitian sisters with hypocalcemic vitamin D resistant rickets, however no other genes were evaluated (Hughes et al., 1988). The R73Q variant is observed in 1/16512 (0.0061%) alleles from individuals of South Asian background, but no homozygous individuals were reported, in the ExAC dataset (Lek et al., 2016). The R73Q variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs in the nuclear receptor DNA biding domain at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. We interpret R73Q as a variant of uncertain significance. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 73 of the VDR protein (p.Arg73Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs121909791, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with vitamin D-dependent rickets (PMID: 2849209, 28620554). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as Arg70 to Gln. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7746). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt VDR protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects VDR function (PMID: 2849209). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
