Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000321.3(RB1):c.1960G>C(p.Val654Leu) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V654G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

This sequence change affects codon 654 of the RB1 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the RB1 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with retinoblastoma (PMID: 15605413, 19280657, 36729443). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410929). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 19 and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant disrupts the c.1960G nucleotide in the RB1 gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 14722923, 15884040, 22084214, 26925970, 29568217). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.1960G>C pathogenic mutation (also known as p.V654L), located in coding exon 19 of the RB1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1960. The amino acid change results in valine to leucine at codon 654, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 19, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This mutation has been described in multiple individuals with retinoblastoma (Alonso J et al. Hum. Mutat. 2005 Jan;25(1):99; Li T et al. Int J Clin Exp Pathol 2016;9(2):2120-2126; Ambry internal data). Using two different splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted by ESEfinder to abolish the native splice donor site, but is predicted to weaken (but not abolish) the efficiency of the native splice donor site by BDGP. RNA studies using patient RNA have shown that both this alteration and another mutation at this nucleotide position (c.1960G>A) cause exon 19 skipping, resulting in a truncated protein (Houdayer C et al. Hum. Mutat. 2008 Jul;29(7):975-82). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
