Genes affected

UNC119 (HGNC:12565): (unc-119 lipid binding chaperone) This gene is specifically expressed in the photoreceptors in the retina. The encoded product shares strong homology with the C. elegans unc119 protein and it can functionally complement the C. elegans unc119 mutation. It has been localized to the photoreceptor synapses in the outer plexiform layer of the retina, and suggested to play a role in the mechanism of photoreceptor neurotransmitter release through the synaptic vesicle cycle. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

RSKR (HGNC:26314): (ribosomal protein S6 kinase related) Predicted to enable protein kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein phosphorylation. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.83).
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd at 27 AD gene.

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, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
