Genes affected
MERTK (HGNC:7027): (MER proto-oncogene, tyrosine kinase) This gene is a member of the MER/AXL/TYRO3 receptor kinase family and encodes a transmembrane protein with two fibronectin type-III domains, two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains, and one tyrosine kinase domain. Mutations in this gene have been associated with disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) phagocytosis pathway and onset of autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP).

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

PM1
In a domain Protein kinase (size 271) in uniprot entity MERTK_HUMAN there are 24 pathogenic changes around while only 6 benign (80%) in NM_006343.3
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.791
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000301 (44/1461890) while in subpopulation MID AF= 0.00329 (19/5768). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00216. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 16 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 32.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 02, 2022Reported in an individual with Leber congenital amaurosis who also harbored a homozygous pathogenic variant in another gene responsible for this phenotype (Eisenberger et al., 2013); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24265693) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 03, 2022This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 812 of the MERTK protein (p.Tyr812Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs141361084, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Leber congenital amaurosis (PMID: 24265693). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403082). 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 MERTK protein function. 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. -
