Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Strong

The NM_000539.3(RHO):​c.35C>G​(p.Pro12Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 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. P12S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

RHO (HGNC:10012): (rhodopsin) The protein encoded by this gene is found in rod cells in the back of the eye and is essential for vision in low-light conditions. The encoded protein binds to 11-cis retinal and is activated when light hits the retinal molecule. Defects in this gene are a cause of congenital stationary night blindness.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 10 uncertain in NM_000539.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 125 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 8 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.24182 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 1.4363 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to congenital stationary night blindness, congenital stationary night blindness autosomal dominant 1, retinitis pigmentosa 4, fundus albipunctatus, retinitis pigmentosa.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.99

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline with arginine at codon 12 of the RHO protein (p.Pro12Arg). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and arginine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 24265693, Invitae). This variant has been reported to have conflicting or insufficient data to determine the effect on RHO protein function (PMID: 30977563). 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. -
