Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS3 PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Moderate PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000180.4(GUCY2D):​c.2513G>C​(p.Arg838Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 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 Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV001159886: "In agreement with this prediction, arginine 838 has been shown to be critical for calcium binding and protein dimerization and other variants in this codon disrupt this critical function in vitro (Ramamurthy 2001)."". Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R838S) has been classified as Pathogenic. The gene GUCY2D is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

Genes affected

GUCY2D (HGNC:4689): (guanylate cyclase 2D, retinal) This gene encodes a retina-specific guanylate cyclase, which is a member of the membrane guanylyl cyclase family. Like other membrane guanylyl cyclases, this enzyme has a hydrophobic amino-terminal signal sequence followed by a large extracellular domain, a single membrane spanning domain, a kinase homology domain, and a guanylyl cyclase catalytic domain. In contrast to other membrane guanylyl cyclases, this enzyme is not activated by natriuretic peptides. Mutations in this gene result in Leber congenital amaurosis and cone-rod dystrophy-6 diseases.

ACMG classification

Specifications for GUCY2D are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV001159886: "In agreement with this prediction, arginine 838 has been shown to be critical for calcium binding and protein dimerization and other variants in this codon disrupt this critical function in vitro (Ramamurthy 2001)."
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000180.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr17-8014700-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 98568.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 55 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 15 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.78087 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.0082692 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to Leber congenital amaurosis 1, cone-rod dystrophy, central areolar choroidal dystrophy, GUCY2D-related dominant retinopathy, cone-rod dystrophy 6, Leber congenital amaurosis, night blindness, congenital stationary, type1i, GUCY2D-related recessive retinopathy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.932
• PP5: Variant 17-8014701-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-8014701-G-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 811743.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
