Genes affected
NR2E3 (HGNC:7974): (nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group E member 3) This protein is part of a large family of nuclear receptor transcription factors involved in signaling pathways. Nuclear receptors have been shown to regulate pathways involved in embryonic development, as well as in maintenance of proper cell function in adults. Members of this family are characterized by discrete domains that function in DNA and ligand binding. This gene encodes a retinal nuclear receptor that is a ligand-dependent transcription factor. Defects in this gene are a cause of enhanced S cone syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 14, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 76 of the NR2E3 protein (p.Arg76Trp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with enhanced S cone syndrome or autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 10655056, 26667666, 28559085). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5529). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt NR2E3 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects NR2E3 function (PMID: 19823680, 19898638, 27013732). This variant disrupts the p.Arg76 amino acid residue in NR2E3. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19823680, 19898638, 27013732, 28418496, 30324420; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 11, 2023Variant summary: NR2E3 c.226C>T (p.Arg76Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Zinc finger, nuclear hormone receptor-type domain (IPR001628) / DNA-binding domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3e-05 in 229784 control chromosomes. c.226C>T has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with retinitis pigmentosa, enhanced rod cone syndrome, or retinal dystrophy in settings of multi-gene panel testing (examples: Ge_2015, Stone_2017, Zampaglione_2020, Al-khuzaei_2020) or in individuals affected with enhanced rod cone syndrome without a second reported variant (example: Haider_2000). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Multiple publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, with the most pronounced variant effect showing a complete loss of DNA binding ability (examples: Roduit_2009, Kanda_2009, Barrera_2016). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 33138239, 27013732, 26667666, 10655056, 19898638, 15689355, 19823680, 28559085, 32037395). Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
