Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM1PP2PP3_Moderate
The NM_000180.4(GUCY2D):c.2516C>G(p.Thr839Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000493 in 1,419,722 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T839P) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Variant summary: GUCY2D c.2516C>G (p.Thr839Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Haem NO binding associated (IPR011645) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.6e-05 in 251422 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 3.5e-05 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2516C>G has been reported in the literature as a single heterozygous variant in two individuals affected with macular dystrophy and Stargardt disease, respectively (Weisschuh_2024, Hitti-Malin_2024). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Leber Congenital Amaurosis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37734845, 38540785). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 635421). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Cone-rod dystrophy 6;C2931258:Leber congenital amaurosis 1 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 839 of the GUCY2D protein (p.Thr839Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs61750174, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with inherited retinal dystrophy (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 635421). 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 GUCY2D protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Thr839 amino acid residue in GUCY2D. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with GUCY2D-related conditions (Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
