Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4BS1

The NM_001319074.4(RAX2):c.260G>A(p.Arg87Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000218 in 1,557,406 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign 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. R87W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

RAX2 (HGNC:18286): (retina and anterior neural fold homeobox 2) This gene encodes a homeodomain-containing protein that plays a role in eye development. Mutation of this gene causes age-related macular degeneration type 6, an eye disorder resulting in accumulations of protein and lipid beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within the Bruch's membrane. Defects in this gene can also cause cone-rod dystrophy type 11, a disease characterized by the initial degeneration of cone photoreceptor cells and resulting in loss of color vision and visual acuity, followed by the degeneration of rod photoreceptor cells, which progresses to night blindness and the loss of peripheral vision. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.32189253).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00019 (29/152304) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.000415 (2/4824). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00023. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 11 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
