Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PS1_Very_Strong PM1 PM5 PP2 PP3

The NM_000539.3(RHO):​c.43_44delAAinsTC​(p.Asn15Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type MNV, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N15K) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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: Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points.

• PS1: Transcript NM_000539.3 (RHO) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar.
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 9 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 15 uncertain in NM_000539.3
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr3-129528778-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 802004.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 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, retinitis pigmentosa 4, inherited retinal dystrophy, fundus albipunctatus, congenital stationary night blindness autosomal dominant 1, retinitis pigmentosa.
• PP3: No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
